Mirror Moon Mind

mirror moon mind -
on a rock in a lotus pond
by a bamboo grove

All the symbols of a classical haiku in one painting, one set of Buddhist iconography: The Water Moon Kannon.


One of my earlier haiku read:


quiet spring day -
the lake a mirror
but aaaa, the clouds !



With a Discussion on the Mirror Mind.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

der Mond im Spiegel
der Spiegel im Mond
und wo bin ich ?



Immer eingeschaltet
Immer abgeschaltet
das ist mein Augenblick

Antei-Doo
