Merle,
So I hear you say.
But you take me wrongly. I was addressing someone here who is practicing Soto
Zen with a teacher; yet, you commented anyway, and in a way to chastise me,
then.
This, although you practice with no teacher, and may not know Soto from Rinzai
from Obaku, unless you've read some good foundational books, and remember
something factual of what you have read.
70 km? That's about 43 US miles. I suppose you can see the glow of the City
in your night sky. Does the sky light interfere with your naked-eye view of
the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds?
