The jurney I took in Asia this year is "to attain my true self".
I have given myself to the spring of life, allowing it to take me through the path.
There is a saying that "the path is wiser than the ones who walk on it".
Anyway, I got to Kho Samui to meet a friend. I didn't only meet him but encounter his friend Erez who happens to live in Lamai beach and instantly invited me to stay for as long as I wish. He had not only opened his house but also his heart.
"Anderstanding will not help you", said my teacher and here I was expiriancing the truth. The truth is just like this and Erez is just like this. He does what he believes in and believes in what he does. Thai people as thai language, are simple. Not too many words, not too many philosophy. Just do it. Just be 100% in what you do. When hungry- eat, when tired- rest, and that they surely do alot...
Erez sells cloths, fisherman pants look like his specialty so he offered me the Japanies fisherpants.
The minuite I saw the pants I knew this was what I was looking for. Fisherman loose pants with a shik and elegant look.
I spend the last 3 months in Budahist Monestaries in Korea and Japan and I used many kinds of pants, but this is the best; It is comfortable for the long seatings, easy to put on, easy to take off.
Thick anuogh for winter and with the brithing material, also very good for summer.
There are not enough words for me to thank you Erez, for your hospitality, generousity and openess.
Between sea and sea, for this is an island, I had enjoyed tropical fruits, rice in so many forms and the sunny beaches and thai masages, preparing me for the next 3 monastic months ahead of me.
May your way be your leader and may you let it be that way.
Yours in the Dahrma
Koyo
