Jonathan,

In you last posting you wrote something to which I'd like to respond:



>. . .snip. . .Zen a esoteric not exoteric system of thought. . .snip. . .

 

You're wrong on both of these counts.  First, zen is definitely exoteric
[understandable/available to all], not esoteric [understandable/available
only to a select few with special knowledge].  And second, zen is not a
system of thought.  Philosophy is a system of thought.

 

Your postings, on the other hand, are indeed esoteric - although apparently
are, like zen, not the product of a system of thought.

 

Of course I could be wrong.  I'll have to wait until the Jack Daniels wears
off to know for sure.  Until then I remain. . .

 

Samsara-ly Yours. . .Bill!
