ZEN and HAIKU
I tried hard to find a Japanese translation for the “Zen Moment”,
but this word is not common in Japanese haiku teaching, as far as I know.
I have written more on the subject here:

句三昧 お寺の庭に 眠る石
ku zan mai otera no niha ni nemuru ishi
[zan mai] means [thinking it with all body and soul]
I have posted a similar haiku of Issa to my blog.
Cheers,
sakuo.
Oh Gabi,
this photo-haiku is wonderful...so peaceful...
and I like the way you've framed
it all together -- very nice work!
Love your latest photos...
Kusu no Ki is particularly fascinating.

The sculpture is so cute, Gabi! Zhanna
Lovely page, Gabi san!
From reading the haiku to seeing the picture, there was a first aha! moment -- not the type of sleeping stone I had expected. Then, a moment to savour the picture together with the haiku -- and then... a second aha! moment -- the stones are awake!!
