There are many correlations with the Buddhist teachings. for example, the symbol of the letting go "ready for the fall" and the monks using the orange or reddish colors on their robes to symbolize that fall, that let go of everything,... it is the peace mind, the realization, and acceptance that we all die. The fall is saying ... to enjoy life, now in this moment! with the simplest acts of living in the moment...like... breathing. let go
"I'm ready for the fall
I'm ready for everything
That I believed in to drift away
I'm ready for the leaves
Ready for the colors to burn to gold and crumble away"
