I too had postcards of the other world that I laminated and hung in each
space that Fred and I lived in in India. Needless to say, they were covered
with bugs and dust but I still have them in my home here at Songaia. The
wave and the mountain are in my living room. The size is larger that the
postcard but reminds me of the other world of stillness and care in the
midst of the everyday. what memories!

During the early 80's I bought a book of the Thrity-six Views as postcards
that could be torn out and mailed. I pulled out the 4 views that we had
chosen for Land, River, Mountain, and Sea. They were still displayed as
decor in the Kemper Building. In '88 after moving to Denver I had them
framed and have had them up in my apts. from that time til now.
If someone remembers differently, I am open.
with respect,

(this is the pattern for the monsoon isn't it?)

<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirty-six_Views_of_Mount_Fuji> I'm not
convinced about your proposed 64k Answer -
that #27 Tama River in Musashi Province
is our River of Consciousness print.
How about #12: Sunset across the

the <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumida_River> Sumida River at Onmayagashi
Jean - does your answer
have a past memory event reference point
are you interpreting present time the look of the print?
Seems like I can marshall up memories of the
Land, Mountain, Sea...but
the River print draws a 100% blank
Can someone close to the archives find
Hoksai prints and snap a digital photo?
What do you say Marge, up for a "lost gem quest"?
I think it is really interesting that Lee Early and others
Have 1st hand stories with seeing Fuji from Hoksai's view,
JWM & Hoksai. These tiny, simple stories occur for me as the
prose version of a haiku - called a haibun. some times they are
only as long as a paragraph from a journal or the back of a post
card.
Haibun stories are journey stories; they tell about a journey within a
journey.
There are always connections to the physical world,
the natural landscape and this environment may play a large
part in the human's enlightenment and resolution of the situation.
So they speak from a sense of the factual reality of every day events in
which some
small moment of truth has been realized and is shared.
Hoksai's prints always seem to open a new story line. On time
Bruce Hanson was on a consultancy at Toshiba in Japan. He was
supposed to do an appreciative inquiry - to get the "lay of the Land"
about how they did research.
He was surprised when they asked him to
report to a large public meeting. They were very surprised when he
talked from 4 Hoksai prints and saw their research teams as a flow
like the land, river, mountain, sea. Product research teams would form and
go
on a journey.
1st they would enter into a new land of mysterious information with no
clear sense of path or direction
2nd their conversation began to flow like a river of new ideas
3rd as a team began to build prototypes there was a mountain of specific
cares to
solve step by step
4th the team would launch a product/service like a small boat sailing
against a wave.
He realized a PHD dissertation from the experience.
He runs an MBA program now in California
It would be fun to get him to share his realization 1st hand.
Anyone got any other
Land-River-Mountain-Sea small stories to share, maybe
-a small scene in a LENS seminar when the mountain decor fell off the wall
-a moment of inspiration when noticing Mt. Fugi in Japan?
Other thoughts?
