Episode: Encountering Shih-Tou (2 of 2): The Song of the Grass Roof Hermitage
Description: Jay Rinsen Weik leads a retreat workshop at the Toledo Zen Center on July 27, 2008.
"I've built a grass roof hut, where there's nothing of value.
After eating, I relax and enjoy a nap.
When it was completed, fresh weeds appeared.
Now it's been lived in - covered by weeds.
The person in the hut lives here calmly,
not stuck to inside, outside, or in between."-- Shih-T'ou
