In war there's no time to teach or learn Zen
carry a strong stick
bash your attackers
- Ikkyu Sojun, 15th Century Zen Master
"Let us who mystically represent the cherubim and sing the Thrice-holy Hymn to the life-giving trinity, now lay aside all cares of life, that we may receive the King of all, escorted invisibly by ranks of angels, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia."
-- The Cherubic Hymn, Liturgy of St John Chrysostom --
