Chattanooga

You describe it in vain, you picture it unavailingly;

Praising it is useless, stop trying to perceive it.

There is nowhere to hide your true self;

When the universe is annihilated, this remains, indestructable.

- Mumon (1183 - 1260), capping verse to Case 23 of The Gateless Gate

A good Sunday to drive up to Chattanooga.  As an added bonus, I was accompanied by Burt, one of the regular participants of Monday Night Zazen.
