Closing Poem August Kosesshin
 People of Old making Efforts for True mind
Seeming like fools
Each and every step nothing to hold onto
Pure mind Instances
The depth of Buddha mind – unimaginable
Only staying with creative work
for pure mind

And this morning the Roshi was celebrated for his birthday !
