[ED]

ED asked Bill: "How would you describe 'mindfulness'?  How  would you
describe 'just mindfulness' or 'mindfulnes only' or 'nothing but
mindfulness'?"

Hi Mike,

You may use any means you choose answer the questions.

ED,
   I see you're still standing on one side of the wall : )   Do you
really think that Zen can be described. and defined analytically? Which
do you think closer points to the heart of Zen - the woo-woo of the koan
or the Zen Guide for Dummies?   Mike

Bill,

All by smileys are inserted with serious intention.

Your message below is both instructive and chips away at our woo-woo Zen
Tower of Babel. Thank you.

How would you describe 'mindfulness'?

How  would you describe 'just mindfulness' or 'mindfulnes only' or
'nothing but mindfulness'?

Thanks,
