Selections from the Precious Teachings of the Chan Monastery - Quotes of Huang Long
Jingshan Chongji (Years unknown, Song Dynasty)
English translation: Miao Guang

It is only because there is wind and rain,
That spring and summer can nurture life;
It is only because there is frost and snow,
That autumn and winter can ripen life.

── from Chanlin Baoxun (Precious Teachings of the Chan Monastery)
