Merle, The Zen school advocates and transmits a practice (many practices) which bring(s) forth the true mind, and has the distinction of doing this suddenly. There is nothing distorted in that, and no preaching. Teachers can only encourage our practice, once we learn correct methods. Usually not much talking is done. You make a mashed-potato dish out of all the things you throw into one paragraph of yours, below. Our way and our practice have nothing to do with your mashing and bashing and confabulations. If you need to cast aspersions, ...don't. It's no help to our discussions of our topics. --Joe > Merle Lester <merlewiitpom@...> wrote: > > mike bill joe, group:.. > > have you read chairman mao's little red book?..i read it whilst i was in > beijing... it is quite enlightening...and not such a bad idea...as in all > things... red books green books...bible, koran... > it gets turned upside down and inside out when men begin to practise... > it's the practise that becomes distorted,,joe...some folk stand up on the > hind legs and point the way... and the way is false in many cases... > folk like to preach they know best... > zen forums are no different.. > > yea bill..you don't need lists..however maybe just maybe bill!..some folk >need a nudge and reminding...and that applies to the zen folk as well... > > thoughts only...nothing is set in concrete in my case..
