Thank you Jon for introducting me to the poetry of Ryokan. And for your amazing teaching. Taigu Ryokan First Days Of Spring - The sky First days of Spring-the sky is bright blue, the sun huge and warm. Everything's turning green. Carrying my monk's bowl, I walk to the village to beg for my daily meal. The children spot me at the temple gate and happily crowd around, dragging to my arms till I stop. I put my bowl on a white rock, hang my bag on a branch. First we braid grasses and play tug-of-war, then we take turns singing and keeping a kick-ball in the air: I kick the ball and they sing, they kick and I sing. Time is forgotten, the hours fly. People passing by point at me and laugh: 'Why are you acting like such a fool?' I nod my head and don't answer. I could say something, but why? Do you want to know what's in my heart? From the beginning of time: just this! just this!
All what we have created here will keep on resonating in our hearts and in the world. We can all carry what we have acquired. Thank you Jon, this will always stay.
I am just blown away by the level of generosity of both of you - Jon and Soren. I feel so blessed to have connected with this practice again in this space. I have read and listened to Jon’s work over the years and to reconnect in such a warm gentle environment ; to be led to valuable references and connection with the historical voices of this way of being is inspirational. Thank you
The way this whole magical thing has unfolded so naturally, and the way that Jon and Soren gently spoke about the ending here are a perfect illustration of mindfulness and heartfulness. The inspiration will stay with me and all of us I hope. Just this indeed!
So grateful for all these weeks following Jon Kabat Zinn in this journey of learning and listening and being. How can I join one of the groups afterwards ???? i follow this on UA-cam, so don't know the time to join live. Please who can help me?

First Days Of Spring - The sky
First days of Spring-the sky
is bright blue, the sun huge and warm.
Everything's turning green.
Carrying my monk's bowl, I walk to the village
to beg for my daily meal.
The children spot me at the temple gate
and happily crowd around,
dragging to my arms till I stop.
I put my bowl on a white rock,
hang my bag on a branch.
First we braid grasses and play tug-of-war,
then we take turns singing and keeping a kick-ball in the air:
I kick the ball and they sing, they kick and I sing.
Time is forgotten, the hours fly.
People passing by point at me and laugh:
'Why are you acting like such a fool?'
I nod my head and don't answer.
I could say something, but why?
Do you want to know what's in my heart?
From the beginning of time: just this! just this!
Thank you Mimiche
