Kugyo san’s talk from zazen on 4/23.

We have done the best we could.

Rev Ito joined zazen. He talked about how to find positive through negative teachings.
“How can we ever lose interest in life? Spring has come again And cherry trees bloom in the mountain
Kugyo san shared Ryokan’s quote: “How can we ever lose interest in life? Spring has come again and cherry trees bloom in the mountains.”
