Happy New Year everyone! My local Soto-shu temple here in Tokyo has Zazen sessions open to the public twice a month and I often go along. Last time everyone who attended got a Zen Calendar for 2023.

Think before your work. Or maybe more generally „Think before you act“?

Monday, February the 27th: 誠意を尽くす誠意を尽くす

Tuesday, February the 28th: 常に研究を怠るな常に研究を怠るな

Never be negligent in your research

「這えば立て立てば歩めの親心」わが身につもる老いを忘れてことばの玉箱より „The parental affection of: When you crawl, stand up; when you stand, walk“ Forget the old age that is piled up in your body. from the language‘s jewelbox (jewelbox of phrases?)

Wednesday, March the 1st: 大きな夢を持て大きな夢を持て
