Boke (Chaenomeles speciosa) flowers in Tokei-ji
Gentle and clear colors have returned to the gardens of Zen. The soft and cool sunlight of autumn brings us the gentleness of spirit which has been long forgotten.
Soon the trees will begin to take on autumnal reds and yellows and color these quiet gardens brightly before gloomy winter arrives.

In our phenomenal world, all living thing must be born, change and die without cease.
