Picture of Buddhist temple Spring

Science Fiction Spring

Once upon a time there was a young man named Tom who was traveling in Asia. He was looking for a place where he could find the peace and quiet he was looking for. One day, while hiking in the mountains, he saw a Zen Buddhist temple hidden behind lush green trees and wildflowers. Intrigued by this mysterious place, he decided to stop there to see what he could find.


Once inside, Tom was immediately struck by the beauty and calm of the temple. The walls were covered with magnificent frescoes depicting spiritual scenes and the floors were covered with colorful hand-woven rugs. As he explored the area, he noticed a door at the back of the temple that seemed to threaten into another world.


Tom approached the door and when it slowly opened in front of him, he was amazed by what he saw: a huge lush forest bathed in spring sunshine that filtered between the leafy branches of the giant trees! In the middle of this magical forest was a peaceful lake whose waters reflected the clear blue of the cloudless sky. This sparkling place seemed to be exactly what Tom had been looking for for so long: absolute peace and quiet!


Tom spent the whole day exploring this magical place and taking full advantage of its soothing surroundings before evening fell gently upon him. When he finally returned to the Zen temple later that night, Tom felt his soul had changed; she was calmer and more serene than ever before!
