We Delineate With Boundries In Order To Communicate,
But Also To Eat, Eliminate, And Seek Shelter. In Short
To Survive. Thus To Just Stop Communicating Is Not An
Answer Either. We Can Only Survive In A Relative
Universe. You Will Not Live To Be A Buddha If You Do
Not Divide And Create Bounderies, Neither Would Have
Gautama. We Of Course Would Have Never Heard Of It
Without An Ability To Communicate. Surely Pretending
There Is Nothing To Eat, Or That There Is No Thing
That Needs To Eat Was Not What The Buddha Meant, Or
Why Did He Go Out Each Day To Beg For Food? If The Way
To End Suffering Is To Not Think In Dualistic
Terms.... To Stop Concious Thought.... That Is All
Dualistic As Well, Why Did He Not Just Teach His
Followers To Stop Eating Till They Stopped Thinking?
If There Is No One To Eat, And Nothing Real That Can
Be Eaten, Then Why Did The Buddha Take Up His Bowl And
Beg For Food?..... In The Very Way The Buddha Lived,
Every Morning He Pointed Out The Idea There Is No You
Is Not His Teaching.
