「松本ローズ」という名のアスターの種を蒔きました
お盆に向けて咲く予定の切り花です
お盆って、花の値段がびっくりするほど上がるんですよね〜
「だったら、自分で育てちゃえ！」ってことで、今年も花育スタートです
のんびり咲くのを待ちながら、成長記録をアップしていきます
宮木野の空気の中で、どんなふうに育ってくれるか楽しみ
花を咲かせませ
拈華微笑 I may not fully grasp the truth that Mahākāśyapa realized, but I still wish to emulate his smile. This is a story from the time when Shakyamuni Buddha delivered a sermon on Vulture Peak. It is said that Shakyamuni, without saying a word, picked up a lotus flower and gently showed it to the assembly. While the disciples could not grasp his meaning, only Mahākāśyapa understood Shakyamuni's intention and smiled gently. Mahākāśyapa adhered to strict precepts regarding clothing, food, and shelter, leading a simple life. Specifically, he wore coarse robes, ate only food received through begging, and practiced asceticism, wandering without a fixed abode. Though I cannot live like Mahākāśyapa, I have decided to grow vegetables instead, in place of his gentle smile and simple way of life.
