Zen and Swordsmanship

...the Mind in its suchness is at once movable and immovable,

it is constantly flowing, never "stopping" at any point,

and yet there is in it a center never subject to any kind of movement,

remaining forever one and the same.


The difficulty is how to identify this center of immovability

with its never-stopping movements themselves.


--- from D.T. Suzuki's "Zen and Japanese Culture"
