From the delightful book: Zen Without Zen Masters, Camden Benares (1977)

“I walk without shoes in the mountains. My bare feet touch the mountain. The mountain takes pleasure in knowing my body.”
This beautiful world-view is reflected in a quote from the book Masters of the Living Energy, by Joan Parisi Wilcox. ‘Andeans are born into a world that they believe is as conscious of them as they are of it.’
