Shenshan was mending clothes with a needle and thread.
“What are you doing?” asked Dongshan
“Mending.”
“How is that?”
“One stitch is like the next,” said Shenshan.
“We’ve been traveling together for twenty years, and you still talk like that! How can this be?”
“How do you mend?” asked Shenshan.
“The whole earth is spewing flames,” said Dongshan.
—The Record of Dongshan, 30
Where does Carlos Santana’s next note come from? How about your next thought?
Jordan was practicing with his band the other day and realized that his body knew the next guitar chord to play even though his mind did not. Jesse went to his studio to try out a little riff on his guitar and a song and a half poured out.
We might not know what comes next, but come it does, and we step into it with no effort at all.
Join Jordan and Jesse for an exploration of…well, that.
And there might be music, too. We’ll just have to see.
Jordan McConnell and Jesse Cardin Roshi are special co-hosts at Jon Joseph’s Monday Session this week.
