YEAR OF ZEN: AUTUMN: DAY 90

Allegory of Night - Joachim von Sandrart

Q: Where do you find subtlety and nuance that enriches your mind?

A: There is great wisdom in paying attention to detail and nuance. When I am wise enough to do this it is only to my benefit. The detail and nuance is a key to understanding that the big and impressive forces that govern life and the universe are actually happening in similar form on a smaller scale. And that lens is profound. A profound wonder of this life and universe is that while we have awareness and intelligence all of our understanding breaks down to theory and conjecture at some point (at least for now).
