So you finally let go of your mistaken notions and accept CHI? very good grasshopper.
Now understand CHI. CHI is everywhere. CHIcks, CHIhuahuas, CHIn, CHIna, CHIcano, CHIcago, CHIli, CHIle, etc. Get in touch with CHI. Ride your CHI. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill Smart To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, September 07, 2008 7:54 AM Subject: [Zen] Re: Chan for this discussion group JMJM, Although I do not agree with everything in your recent posting attached, I was not at all disappointed. I especially liked your quote from the Platform Sutra: "We originally have what is pure, unmovable, undying and sufficient." ...and your comment right after that: It is our mind and our knowledge that hinder us. Do let go and be in sync with the universal Chi. Try it and witness yourself.
