To Anyone Who Cares,
After much reflection and a good round of my thrice-weekly, regularly-scheduled
18-hole kinhin I've decided to quit using the term 'illusion'. It is the term
I was personally taught and have seen written in countless books on zen and
that I myself have used for over 40 years, but it seems to conjure up some kind
of bad mojo for most of you. I get the feeling that you think if your are
creating 'illusions' that you're doing something wrong or bad, and that's is
definitely not what I want to project.
So...I'm now going to use the term 'model' or 'logical model' or maybe
'rational model' (I haven't decided which yet). I'm looking for something that
will more palatable to the majority here that seem to have a bad reaction to
the term 'illusion'.
But the meaning I intend to communicate will still be the same...Bill!
