A Steel Hammer Flies Through the Spring Breeze

October 28, 2018February 8, 2023 by Sensei Carol, posted in Poems and Koans


A steel hammer flies through the spring breeze

The hardness of the steel represents ultimate “nothingness”, which reminds us of the importance of single-mindedness when circumstances are uncomfortable.

A spring breeze can carry the hammer away as it approaches to nothingness.
