The phenomenon of moon in the water
is likened to human experience
The water is the subject, and the moon the object
When there is no water, there is no moon in the water
And likewise when there is no moon
But when the moon rises
The water does not wait to receive it's image
And when even the tiniest drop of water is poured out
The moon does not wait to cast its reflection

Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection

Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection
Does not wait to cast it's reflection


The past is already past
The future is not yet here
Things are constantly changing




For the moon does not intend to cast its reflection
And the water does not receive its image on purpose
The event is caused as much by the water as by the moon
And as the water manifests the brightness of the moon
The moon manisfests the clarity of the water
