From my Zen Calendar for May 1st. A quote from Shunryu Suzuki:
"Life without zazen is like winding your clock without setting it. It runs perfectly well, but doesn't tell time."
I like this one. For myself it is so true. Zazen keeps me in the right time. Without it I am lost. With zazen I may still wander around, but I am not lost.
Hands palm to palm,
Shinzen
