Reading

A single sound, and the Way opens.

Water in the valley, a pebble against bamboo — in that instant the shape of things is seen through.

What is sought does not lie elsewhere; it arrives in whatever now reaches the ear.

Origin

From the Record of Yunmen (Yunmen Guanglu): "hear a sound and awaken to the Way; see a form and the mind grows clear." It echoes the old accounts of Xiangyan, awakened by a pebble striking bamboo, and Lingyun, awakened at the sight of peach blossoms.

Seal

The original seal is hand-carved in Tokyo by the artist Satake Hōsen. Its impression is reproduced as a print on the garment.
