This thread got me to again pull a book from the shelf. The back
cover said: "In the case of archery, the hitter and the hit are no
longer two opposing objects, but are one reality. The archer ceases to
be conscious of himself as the one who is engaged in hitting the
bull's-eye which confronts him. This state of unconsciousness is
realized only when, completely empty and rid of self, he becomes one
with the perfecting of his technical skill, though there is in it
something of a quite different order which cannot be attained by any
progressive study of the art" -- from the Introduction by D.T. Suzuki
to the Eugen Herrigel book 'Zen in the Art of Archery' (a pun waiting
to happen in this group?).

Like releasing angels from blocks of marble, finding bowls hidden in
trees and releasing them without any sign you were there sounds like a
zen practice.
