05 
Purity
06 
Take your chance – it won't come back again
07 
Dust – before the wind blows it away
08 
Drifting clouds, flowing water
09 
A smile tells more than a thousand words

Humility and serenity will bring you happiness
11 
Hero
12 
Courage
13 
Deep in the water fishes are in heaven
14 
A lingering cloud quietly clearing away
15 
Take a rest and have a tea
16 
Follow your path with eyes wide awake
17 
Even in the thickest forest birds find their way home
18 
The mountain when we were enjoying summer fruits – where is it?
The stone when we were fishing in the autumn sea – is it still there?
19 
Mountains are peeking out of clouds in the east
Shimmering through the trees – what a scenery of Nanhu!
20 
Wind chasing away the rain, unveiling the mountain fort
Clouds darken the light, roaring thunder on earth
After the rain where did the dragon go
In the fresh grass around the pond countless frogs are croaking
21 
From the front it looks like a peak, from the side like a ridge
How different it looks from far or close, from high or low
You’ll never know the true shape of Lushan
Where ever you are
22 
Deep in the mountains white gathering clouds
Nightingales in the woods filling my ears with songs
How can I stand this without getting crazy
Why not facing the rocks and try to empty my mind
23 
Where fishes swirl around, you see the water roil
Where birds whirl around, you see feathers fall
24 
When the hen feels cold, it climbs into a tree
When a duck feels cold, it dives into the water
25 
What's this?
26 
Laugh, smile
27 

How beautiful
The butterflies emerging
From this thick weed!

There is a path and yet no path
(Shichirō Fukazawa: »The Ballad of Narayama«)
32 

Schläft ein Lied in allen Dingen
Die da träumen fort und fort
Und die Welt hebt an zu singen
Triffst du nur das Zauberwort
(Joseph von Eichendorff: »Wünschelrute«)
33 

Wenn neu das Licht der Erde sich gezeiget,
Von Frühlingsregen glänzt das grüne Tal und munter
Der Blüten Weiss am hellen Strom hinunter,
Nachdem ein heitrer Tag zu Menschen sich geneiget.
Die Sichtbarkeit gewinnt von hellen Unterschieden,
Der Frühlingshimmel weilt mit seinem Frieden,
Dass ungestört der Mensch des Jahres Reiz betrachtet,
Und auf Vollkommenheit des Lebens achtet.
Mit Untertänigkeit Scardanelli
(Friedrich Hölderlin: »Frühling«)
34 

Il y a de belles choses qui ont plus d'éclat quand elles demeurent imparfaites que quand elles sont trop achevées
Some beautiful things are more dazzling when they are still imperfect than when they have been too perfectly crafted
(Maxime supprimée DLXIX by François de La Rochefoucauld)

The universe in the hole
In the paper door
