Welcome

Just Bow

Putting my right and left hands together as one, I just bow.
Just bow to become one with Buddha and God.
Just bow to become one with everything I encounter.
Just bow to become one with the myriad things.
Just bow as life becomes life.

-The last poem of Uchiyama Kosho Roshi, completed on the last day of his life.
