香道與弓道的對話

The Link between Incense and Archery

香道與弓道都是訓練心專注於一處，當中涉及的動作、儀軌、修養、精神力、禮儀等，都能是為了充份鍛練身心，讓心、神合一的方法。

Incense ceremony and archery practices are both aimed at helping people concentrate. By means of the focusing on the actions, rituals, spiritual practices, concentration, and related courtesy, we can fully train our body and mind in the hope that our body and mind merge into one. 

平日我們有太多的思維概念、太多情緒了，這些干擾讓我們的心無法沉靜，唯有攝心一處，讓心全然安靜下來，才能和宇宙、甚至跟更純淨的法界之源頻率共振、同頻。

Usually, we are bothered by too many thoughts and distractions, which keeps us from staying calm. Only by staying focused can we fully quiet down and resonate with the purer or higher frequency in the cosmic universe.

當我們可以跟宇宙、跟「道」一起共振時，就是古人所說的「天人合一」，也是道家所謂的與「天心」合一，與本源的自性心合一。

When we can resonate with the universe or the Way, in the eyes of ancient people, it can be depicted as the unity of heaven and human beings.

香道與弓道在舞台上的對話，呈現出陽剛與陰柔的美。美的極致，則是無人、無弓、無香、也無展演這件事。所有一切，都只是當下的呈現；在宇宙那唯一且獨特的剎那，迸散出懾人心弦的感動！

The subtle interaction of incense and archery shows a wonderful balance of Ying and Yang, and the exhibition of both in fact goes beyond all the happenings, including the exhibition itself. All the occurrences belong only to the very moments and give off unique and exclusive touching phenomena!
