Infinite Beauty
by Taisen Deshimaru Roshi
Muso fuku den e
Muso: infinite
What is infinity? Hishiryo (hi: non): thinking without thinking, thinking beyond thinking.
It is not a question of quantity. Personal consciousness is not limited. Don't make categories. This way, creativity and wisdom develop. This is very important.
Muso: non-aspect. non-apparent.
Kodo Sawaki called certain faces muso. Muso is infinite beauty, deep. Some people always smile, others not at all. This is Both are stupid. The appearance of the face is a reflection of the spirit. It is easier to read a face than words. Personal characteristics manifest themselves in the face and in the natural comportment. But few know it and many always try to decorate, to put make-up over their own characteristics.
Through zazen, intuition becomes strong. So you can more easily penetrate the
real mind of others, like looking in a mirror.
