If you are interested in using your "Wind Instrument" as a means of approaching Zen, now is the time.

It is better if you sail alone. It is not necessary to voice your intention to your associates. Hoist your smallest sails. Get out of the traffic lanes to a calm open patch of water. Bring your vessel to a weather course. Trim the sail(s) until the boat sails itself. Keep your eyes open. Breathe deeply. The air going in and out of your lungs is the same substance as that moving your boat. Observe but do not comment to yourself about anything. Thoughts will wonder into your consciousness. Label them and let them go. Strive to be in the moment, if only for a micro-second. You will be astounded when it happens. Do not be surprised if you smile at yourself.
