zhengdao-ge/verse22

I have entered the deep mountains to silence and beauty;
In a profound valley beneath high cliffs,
I sit under the old pine trees.
Zazen in my rustic cottage
Is peaceful, lonely, and truly comfortable.

10 times 108 steps above the sea
sits a humble shack for zazen
mosquitos form the sangha
a gathering of Mahasattvas
