Once there was a monk who asked, “What is the meaning of the Patriarch coming from the West? (What is Zen?)”
The master said, “The oak tree in the garden.”

Trees which have been struck by lightning

雨音や
ポツポツの間に
除夜の鐘
The sound of rain
And between the pitter-patter
Midnight bells
‘When the Moon came down’ by Feridun Oral
空風や
最後のひと葉
揺れている
Winter’s dry air
Only the last leaf
Is swaying
not to be a number nerd on main but 2025 (45^2) will be the only square year most of us ever experience. the last one was 1936 and the next one will be 2116
It's also 1³ + 2³ + 3³ + 4³ + 5³ + 6³ + 7³ + 8³ + 9³.
And 45 is 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9
-No, señor maestro -respondió Villarroel-. Llamamos amor a la humanidad a la compasión por el dolor ajeno y a la veneración por las obras de nuestros grandes ingenios (...). En ninguna de ambas formas vale ese amor como argumento para demorar el fin del mundo. Adolfo Bioy Casares "El calamar opta por su tinta"
If only she could write the first 'Dearest' and then sign her name, such that an omniscient Mahendra would read between the lines all that she meant to write.
Rabindranath Tagore “Chokher Bali”
¡Y caen! Caeréis, hojas misérrimas de mi ciprés, caeréis, como cualquier otra hoja bella y vistosa; y, si yo tuviese ojos, os daría una lágrima de tristeza. Ésta es la gran ventaja de la muerte: que, si no deja boca para reír, tampoco deja ojos para llorar... Caeréis.
