My work untitled 1 ~ Koala ~


“To enjoy something interesting, there is no need to go to the trouble of searching for all the right equipment.
The pebbles you find by the roadside give off their own special interest.
If you want to see a beautiful landscape, there is no need to go to the trouble of travelling to a far-off place.
There is natural beauty in a house that has fallen into ruin, as well.”


(from “Caigentan”)
 
 
====================

「趣を味わうために、わざわざ道具をそろえなくていい。
道端の石ころにも、素敵な趣があるものだから。
美しい風景を求めて、わざわざ遠くに行かなくていい。
荒れ果てた家にも、自然の風情があるものだから」


(『菜根譚』より)
