Bonsai Meditations Screen Saver
Itsuki no Komori-Uta
Every one of these trees is older than I am, and in much better shape. Of course, they've had better care. There are about 30 different trees, each with it's own Beautiful Thought floating quietly over it, all from Eastern philosophies, to the accompaniment of an ancient Japanese folk song on the guitar.
The quotes are pre-Christian in origin and philosophy, and have
been carefully selected to include ideas you probably won't have any trouble agreeing
with. The idea here is to bring you peace, not point out your shortcomings, so each
will reassure you that whatever you are doing, it's the right thing for you.
Would you like to see the exact quotes?
Artist's notes: I guess you shouldn't admit you have favorites, or
the others will feel bad, but this is mine. I run this one for a week now and again,
and it's the only only one I'll walk into the room, and sit down and watch it for a
while.
It always starts with the same frame, "May you live in interesting times", then
becomes random, and there are two of them that are long quotes that float two halves of
the quote over the same image. This is a 4.6 meg file, but you won't mind when you
see it.
A lovely place to visit with some nice resources.

The song "Itsuki no Komori-Uta" was originally a Japanese folk song. I am eternally grateful to the artist for sharing.
