Dan had said:
Yes, I understood what David Harding was getting at, and perhaps on
account of my own personal history of sitting (or walking) zazen I
tend to discount the work. Work to me is just work. Sitting is just
sitting. Whatever you do, just do. But do it right.
And of course many who are not aware of this... that's why I walk into
a place today to get the oil changed in my Jeep (which I never do... I
always change it myself but I've been so busy and it got away from me
so I thought, well, I'll stop into this Quick Lube place) and the
radio is blaring some kind of head-banging acid rock and a goofy
looking teenage kid with purple hair and a nose ring comes up to me
covered with grease and dripping oil from his clothes and wonders if
he can help me.
Ummm, no thanks, I said, and turned around and walked right back out.
Now, that kid looked like he was working, of that I have no doubt. But
all the work in the world isn't going to get him even a little bit
closer to Dynamic Quality. I can pretty much guarantee that.
That was my point to David Harding, and I stand by it.
Ron:
It seems you are talking about care. That kid dod'nt really care about what he
was doing
a "not this not that" approach he was not working toward anything in particular.
Why does doing something "right" matter Dan when the whole explanation
rests on no-thing in particular?
How does neti neti, explain what makes something good?
