ED, I don't know what your latest posting was about exactly in relation to what
message I had left on the forum but you may be complicating the issue more than
necessary. I'll have to agree with Mayka here concerning yourself...too much
reading, too much thinking, and ZERO experience. Being so, messages between
yourself and those who practise and live Zen will ALWAYS be cross-wired. That's
fine if you can deal with that
I could reply to all your messages by saying"Bright moon on the water"...or
something like that. You won't understand it because I get the impression
that you seem to be somewhat confused where you really belong...Yahweh, or
something else. You say...
- those in the biblical path are not enlightened
- you've learnt all you needed to know
- bits of humour reminiscent of things/beliefs that are Middle Eastern
- things unrelated to what Zen is all about(eg. categorizing, word
descriptions, etc)
To quote you ED, it's your personal judgement call. No one is going to convert
you here(or even atempt to do so...waste of time), but do accept the fact that
you live in another world to us and there's no bridge in-between. That's the
bad news. The good news is...your style of posting strengthen one's Zen
beliefs..namely mine
Buddha be praised
