Han Shan's Single Robe

Jay Rinsen Weik gives a talk and leads discussion at the Toledo Zen Center on October 22, 2008."Now I have a single robe,
not made of gauze or of figured silk.
Do you ask what color it is?
Not crimson, nor purple either.
Summer days I wear it as a cloak,
in winter it serves for a quilt.
Summer and winter in turn I use it;
year after year, only this."
