A Zen Master said: "Before practicing Zen, rivers were rivers and mountains were mountains. When I practiced Zen, I saw that rivers were no longer rivers and mountains no longer mountains. Now I see that rivers are again rivers and mountains are again mountains."

人間事常難隨人願， 且看明月又有幾回圓. - Nhân gian sự thường nan toại nhân nguyện, Thả khán minh nguyệt hựu hữu kỉ hồi viên - Chuyện đời thường khó toại lòng người, Đành ngắm vầng trăng sáng đã bao lần tròn.
In secret we met -- In silence I grieve, That thy heart could forget, Thy spirit deceive. If I should meet thee After long years, How should I greet thee? -- With silence and tears.
Lord Byron, When We Two Parted
In Zen circles, people say: "Before I became a practitioner, I saw mountain as mountains and rivers as rivers. When I began to practice, I no longer saw mountain as mountains and rivers as rivers; I began to see their interbeing nature. After I atttained the Path, I again saw mountain as mountains and rivers as rivers, but now my view is clearer, my understanding is brighter. I'm no longer caught in the view that the mountain is only the mountain and the river is only the river. Now I really see them, I see their true nature."
