the awakened eye - Gabriel Rosenstock and Ron Rosenstock: photo haiga

encounters with nondual awareness

Moore Hall
ba dhóigh leat go leagfadh
grág préacháin é

Moore Hall
the caw of a rook
could flatten it

Cliara
á iompar go neamh
ag néal

Clare Island
lifted to heaven
on a cloud

photo-haiga

Haiku Master Gabriel Rosenstock works with American master photographer Ron Rosenstock (no relation) to produce images and haiku or haiku-like aphoristic text which they call photo-haiga.

Haiku "owes its impact and inspiration to a meditative flash
in which the experiencer of the haiku moment
merges suddenly with perceived phenomena."
~ Gabriel Rosenstock

an domhan so ar snámh -
néalta
á mhuirniú

this floating world
in an embrace
of cloud

éin cheoil ní chloisid
ná an muaisin -
reilig leanaí

songbirds they hear not
nor the muezzin -
