So what you're trying to tell us is that giving up is
the same as transcending?

Sounds like something out of Alcoholics Anonymous.

I think a number of people on this list enjoy
mystifying things too much. Just being in the moment,
just sitting... all that crap. Don't you realize that
you must transcend all that?

The goal of our practice is Buddhahood. Anyone who
thinks Buddhahood is nothing but a 'pie in the sky'
(and I know for a fact there are many Buddhist
practitioners who do think so) looks to me like a lion
who is trying to hide inside a mouse hole.

Please keep in mind that Buddhahood means omniscience.
Including the Great Don't Know.

Alex
