Edgar,
Please don't let any more (pass), at least not in my presence; I am a fresh-air
freak.
If compassion is merely "understood", the world is (still) in trouble. It is
the great Function of Compassion which must be liberated: that is the ONLY
reason for our Zen practice: it has no other purpose. Wisdom-Compassion arise
simultaneously and are inseparable both from "each-other" and from
circumstances.
That is, IFF we are awake.
And so we practice. And must practice.
You heard it here second.
--Joe
PS Roger; appreciate that this is not a PSA-pasting board. Enough of that on
radio and TV!
