The Man in the Moon
Zen Master Hui Hai, known far and wide as “The Great Pearl,” said,
“The moon is reflected in that deep pond, catch it if you like.”
Reaching to grasp the moon in the pond,
Stirring the ripples and making 10,000 more reflections,
and still coming up empty handed.
Reaching for “not-reaching” stirs up reflections on reflections.
Falling head over heels into the pond,
Sooner or later we discover with a great laugh
The one who is facing the pool.
that we all will be received
in
