Stars Blue Fishing
If the lost word is lost, if the spent word is spent if the unheard, unspoken word is unspoken, unheard; still is the spoken word, the word unheard, the word without a word, the word within the world and for the world; and the light shone in the darkness and against the word the unstilled world still whirled about the center of the silent word. oh my people, what have i done unto thee. where shall the word be found, where shall the word resound? not here, there is not enough silence

So, eventually, he made one final arrangement with himself, which he has religiously held to ever since, and that was to count each fish that he caught as ten, and to assume ten to begin with. for example, if he did not catch any fish at all, then he said he had caught ten fish - you could never catch less than ten fish by his system; that was the foundation of it. then, if by any chance he really did catch one fish, he called it twenty, while two fish would count thirty, three forty, and so on.

The natives of british columbia live largely upon the fish which abound in their seas and rivers. if the fish do not come in due season, and the indians are hungry, a nootka wizard will make an image of a swimming fish and put it into the water in the direction from which the fish generally appear. this ceremony, accompanied by a prayer to the fish to come, will cause them to arrive at once.
Prayer Swimming Sea
A fish swims in the ocean, and no matter how far it swims there is no end to the water. a bird flies in the sky, and no matter how far it flies there is no end to the air. however the fish and the bird have never left their elements. thus each of them totally covers its full range, and each of them totally experiences its realm... know that water is life and air is life. the bird is life and the fish is life. life must be the bird and life must be the fish... practice, enlightenment and people are like this.
Ocean Practice Sky
