Perseverance.
By Rev. Mugo - Posted on September 5th, 2005
"Seven times down and eight up" is a saying linked to Bodhidharma who, it is said, sat for nine long years facing a wall. Hope you enjoy the photos.

Thanks so much for the weblog, Rev. Mugo. I enjoy the mixture of text and images very much, and as others have commented, the things you post often seem to hit the spot in terms of a particular situation or problem.
"Seven times down and eight up" is definitely something I needed to be reminded of at the moment.
I need to get a number of things sorted out. Maybe I'll pick up a Daruma doll and paint in one eye.
I hope Moving Mountains continues for a good while longer.
My very best wishes to you,
