I agree with Neil's statement that it is sometimes hard to see beyond the apparent horror of the presence manifest. Just as it is hard to not be distracted by the perceived beauty. Somewhere in there, we get caught up in the mental gymnastics of judgment and logic. Life to me, is more peaceful and joyful if I can suspend all of that. I don't leave my car running when I don't need to use it.Yet my car is an integral part of my life. I've found my mind to be much the same, an important mechanism that if I keep it well maintained and stored, is there and running at peak operational capacity when needed. That presence can be experienced much more profoundly with a quiet mind, IMHO
