What is Zen?
“Willows are green and flowers are red. 
Flowers are red and yet not red,
willows are green and yet not green,
now again, willows are green, flowers are red. 

There is nothing so close as the teaching of “Suchness,”
a grain of sand contains all land and sea. 
When we have found the Truth, 
mountain is mountain, water is water,
willows are green, flowers are red,
One is all, all in all, I am Universe, Buddha is I.” 
~Dr. Il Bung Seo Kyung Bo
