Reading
Touch the flower, and its scent has already filled the robe.
Nothing was taken; nearness alone leaves the trace.
The line pairs with "cup the water and the moon rests in the hand."
For a moment the distance between the thing and the one who meets it falls away.
Origin
From the Tang poet Yu Liangshi's poem "Spring Mountain, Moonlit Night" (春山夜月): "Cup the water and the moon rests in your hand; touch the flowers and their scent fills your robe." Later taken up in the Chan/Zen records as a teaching line.
Seal
The original seal is hand-carved in Tokyo by the artist Satake Hōsen. Its impression is reproduced as a print on the garment.
