Piece Five: Starry Night

It is always a joy to see the night sky away from the city.  I wish I had a picture to show you. We could see so many things: the Pleiades; all the features of Orion rather than just the stars of the belt; Big Dipper, Little Dipper; planets and moons of planets.  The sky was quiescent and humbling and beautifully lit with uncountable stars.

Do you imagine the universe is agitated? Go into the desert at night and look at the stars. This practice should answer the question. - Lao Tzu
