Book of the Body

The Holy Book, in silent sitting practice, is the Book of the Body.
Doing zazen :reading the book of the body,
The posture is the edition, the binding, the font, the layout,
Consciousness runs through the lines, the postural organization,
Then, consciousness itself is observed.
Distractions, its interpretations of the content.

So, book and mind, whatever happens, whatever the narrative unfolding, the style of the book of the body,
And whatever the understanding of the mind’s games,
the broad consciousness, an infinite blank page.
