The title of the work is a Zen Buddhist saying by Dōgen Zenji (道元禅師; 26 January 1200 – 22 September 1253) which suggests that he (the Sun) still exists during the rainiest storm. Sometimes he (Dōgen Zenji) is the Sun-faced Buddha and sometimes the Moon-faced Buddha. If one side is in shadow, the other side is clear. There is no point in clinging to light or shadow because nothing lasts forever. Everything changes forever.
