Garden Blessing – June 1, 2002
The Dharma rain nourishes the whole world without discrimination.
This tiny speck of dust, this Clear Water Garden, an incomparable jewel
In the midst of spiritual drought, is an oasis.
All beings are welcome to stop here and taste the sweet dew of the Dharma,
Each one different and unique, growing according to their ability,
Like small trees, large trees and plants.
With proper nourishment and care, this sprout will become
A tall and sturdy refuge and a field of blessings for all.
