入五台,于金刚窟前将示灭。先问众云:“诸方迁化,坐去卧去,吾尝见之。还有立化也无?”众云:“有也。”师云:“还有倒立者否?”众云:“未尝见有。”师乃倒立而化,亭亭然,其衣顺体。(《景德传灯录》卷七<五台山隐峰禅师>章)
其实最终我觉得也就求这么个境界,也便是一生要面对的唯一核心课题。
读毕公案,放一张◯△□乐队的《◯》,颇巧符合此时心境。嬉皮年代的日本表演艺术团体,民族和西洋仪器松散合奏,似见到AMT等当今迷幻即兴团体根源。初听似一幕寺山修司影片,二遍时豁然无所束缚,其味悠远,随性而至,可爱极了。比起AMT等团,境界高出何止一截。

Maru-Sankaku-Shikaku, whose name in Japanese characters is a circle, a triangle, and a square, were one of the lesser known early '70s Japanese psychedelic bands. The group existed from 1970 to 1973 and was led by Sakuro "Kant" Watanabe, who had recently graduated from the Ochanomizu Design Institute, and who also played drums in the band Murahachibu at that same time. Other members included Kohji "Tohchan" Miura, Etsuko "Manager" Watanabe, Reck, Chiko-Hige, Juno, and Yoshiyuki Hida. This troupe of flower children would travel to various Japanese cities, living in tents and sleeping bags and often performing on the streets with elaborate face paints and costumes when they didn't have a proper gig. Many of them weren't musicians so much as conceptual artists, and their performances were very freeform and unstructured, involved a lot of theatrics and visual art disciplines as well.
At this time Sakuro Watanabe, who was already publishing his own magazine, decided to release some records. In early 1973 the group recorded a couple different sessions, at the Gyoen Studio and at Tohchan no Kobeya. That year from these sessions the group released a single LP as well as a triple LP in limited quantities. These are all very improvised affairs, sounding like a more amateurish hippy version of the Taj Mahal Travellers crossed with Third Ear Band. Watanabe also released a conceptual 5th LP, -- a phonograph without sound, -- with one locked groove. The group disbanded later that year and Watanabe moved on to begin a Yoga practice(嘿,果真如此). Reck and Chiko-Hige went on to form the avant-punk group Friction later in the 1970s.
