While we are here, we do what we can. Then the next generation comes along and does what they can. There is more to do and, if we strive for it, we will get it done.

KUBOTA GARDEN IS A MAGNIFICENT work of art. I’m not the least bit hesitant to call it a masterpiece of both Shintoism and the Buddha Dharma, and to add that those who walk through its twenty acres in south Seattle discover that during their visit they, too, become part of its natural beauty, tranquility, and spirit of place. |
