Good morning!
I hope we can see the full moon tonight. I hope we can realize the Buddha mind
like the full moon mirror mind, without covering or coloring – clear and calm.
The mirror mind world comes from completion of Kalpa Conflagration,
consummation of constant concentrated cultivation, and clear cool crystal
here and now.

Note:
Kalpa Conflagration (Kalpa-aggi, Kalpa-agni) is the conflagration burning the whole
world. There are koans about it:
1. A monk asked Zen master Daizui Hoshin (大隋法真), “At the Kalpa Conflagration
great thousand universes are destroyed altogether. I am not sure if this is destroyed?”
The master said, “Destroyed.”
2. The Kalpa Conflagration exhausts in its total blaze even the tiniest particles.
The Blue Mountain is in the white clouds depending on the arcane (truth).
All beings as karma-heirs have been transmigrating through the six destinies due to
the beginningless night of nescience for kalpas (eons, billions of years) until the great
conflagration of consuming the limited bound small selves. Thence only one attains
the limitless unbound Dharma-body.
