Buddhism Day by Day: When Water is Clear, the Moon is Reflected
“When water is clear, the moon is reflected. When the wind blows, the trees shake. Our minds are like the water. Faith that is weak is like muddy water, while faith that is clear water. Understand that the trees are like principle, and the wind that shakes them is like the recitation of the sutra.” –Nichiren
