White-crowned Forktail

 Passeriformes - Muscicapidae - Enicurus leschenaulti (Cegar Ubun Putih)

A typical forktail, with piebald plumage and long tail. Like most other forktails, it inhabits shaded whitewater streams, along which it perches on boulders and low-hanging branches. Unmarked black back distinguishes it from Slaty-backed and Spotted forktails. Can be confused with Black-backed Forktail, but unlike that species, white does not extend behind the eye. Often detected by its vocalizations, a harsh buzzing whistle and high metallic whistles.

Who name it, who call it out?
Can you not want it?

Realising Reason



l

The reason that can be reasoned is not the eternal Reason.

The name that can be named is not the eternal name.


ll

Not-having name [is] heaven and earth of the beginning.

Having name [is] the ten thousand names of the mother.


lll

Therefore eternally not-having desire thereby [one] sees its spirituality.

Eternally having desire thereby [one] sees its limits.


lV

These two things [are] the same in origin but different [in] name.


V

[Their] sameness, called is it mystery

The mystery of again a mystery all spirituality of the gate.
