Il punto non ha parte; la linia è il transito del punto;
e’ punti son termine della linia.
(Angolo è il ronpimento d’una linia in punto.)
Lo instante non ha tempo.
El tempo si fa col moto dello instante,e l’istanti son termine del tempo.
The point has no part; a line is the transit of a point;points are the boundaries of a line.
(An angle is the breaking point of a line.)
An instant has no time.
Time is made by the movement of the instant,
and instants are the boundaries of time.–Leonardo da Vinci

Wherever you are, you are one with the clouds and one with the sun and the stars you see. You are one with everything. That is more true than I can say, and more true than you can hear.
–Shunryu Suzuki

You who let yourselves feel: enter the breathing
that is more than your own.
Let it brush your cheeks
as it divides and rejoins beside you.
Blessed ones, whole ones,
you where the heart begins:
You are the bow that shoots the arrows
and you are the target.
Fear not the pain. Let its weight fall back
into the earth;
for heavy are the mountains, heavy the seas.
The trees you planted in childhood have grown
too heavy. You cannot bring them along.
Give yourselves to the air, to what you cannot hold.
–Rainer Maria Rilke

When you are washing the dishes, washing the dishes must be the most important thing in your life. Just as when you are drinking tea, drinking tea must be the most important thing in your life. Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the whole world revolves—slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future. Live the actual moment. Only this actual
