The tearing line by the pen designed on the cover was depicted by Shigyo Sosyu imaging Zen words “Rekko Hakkon (Tear the old, and break the present. Deny old conventions and customs, and further deny the current trends. Inquire the true value beyond oldness and newness.)” (from Daisen Fusai “Quotations”)
“I have nothing. I am valueless. Yet my Chronical of Words and Deeds is being published in series. If this meaning is comprehended, then it seems that many of the modern problems may thaw out.” ̶̶̶ from the preface of Shigyo Sosyu [Japanese Aesthetics]
