Cold Mountain and The Zen Teaching of Bodhidharma which I like a lot. I

There is also the version from TNH. Can't exactly recall the tittle in English
(I have the Spanish translation) but I think is something that goes over this
lines: "The Diamond that cut through Illusion" . It's a very good version as

Although I couldn't find the settings you mention still was a good idea to be

Dear All,
Thanks to ED, we had some wonderful discussion recently.
May I suggest some posting sharing your personal
realization/witness/journey so that we can all learn?
Thank you,

did pry. I was merely disagreeing with your comment.
Certainly it makes sense to be careful of your privacy when posting to
a public, recorded, forum.
Thanks for your sweet email.

The core truth is I think I have much to say on the interesting points
you raised, but I just don't have the energy to do so. It others have
thought on those topics, and I believe k does, then I might join in with
appropriate comments.

Hi Chris and all,
I am not sure whether I read your post correctly. My suggestion was not
targeted at ED. It thanked Buddha for bringing ED to us, so that we
had wonderful sharing from many of us.

Hi Steve,
This is very interesting, and I appreciate you sharing this. Truthfully, I
only learned a bit about his work when I took a class years ago, "Sensation
and Perception". You may have a much better understanding of his conclusions.

Hi Chris,
Some very interesting ideas in your comments. My time is short now, and I'd
rather give you a mindful response. So, I will do so later.
Thanks again for the reply. Have a good day.. k
