- As for the blog's name: -


I was @ Gustav Ericsson's sight, - Anzenkai, and I was looking at Nishijima Roshi’s calligraphies over there. Particularly there is one - "seki shin hen pen" - about which Gustav has earlier said in a blog post that it is Nishijima's favorite phrase from Master Dogen.

This seemed strange to me. It was not what I would expect Nishijima Roshi's favorite phrase to be. It seemed it could be some Rinzai master's favorite quote, - it seems to express continuous and constant sincerity, - but it did not seem to fit my view of the way Nishijima Roshi saw things.

So - consequently - I tried to think what would I expect his favorite quote to be. But all phrases I could think of did not seem to fit just what I might have had in mind.

So I tried to come up with what I would see it as, - and what I have come up with - is - "this universe out here".

- And this seems to be the right name for this blog here too.


- Definitely.                                                 ________________________

Lost Post

- There was a post which was to be posted today.

- I wrote it on a “Word” file, but at present the computer on which it was doesn’t work and I can’t have it on.

- My computer has been taken away by the police, and when I got it back it wasn’t working. - I tried to get the stuff out, but could not on time until today. If and when I’ll get it out (there is still a bit of work needed to be done before posting) I’ll put it up here instead of this shit I must have here now.
