Daily Lectio Divina: Returning across the lake from our monastery at Stone-Screen Cliff

Episode 386

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re continuing our series on the ancient form of Chinese poetry called shan-shui, or Rivers-and-Mountains, using selections from The Mountain Poems of Hsieh Ling-yun.  Today we’re using a selection from “Returning across the lake from our monastery at Stone-Screen Cliff.”

When worry ends, things take themselves lightly,
and when thoughts lull, the inner pattern abides.

I offer this to adepts come refining their lives:
try this old Way of mine, make it search enough.
