Mike; How wise, refreshing and straight forward!. Thank you so much for pointing it out. Lucky you that you can understand all English spoken in the videos. I can't get everything. So frustrating!. I did say to Bill once that if one knows how to use the you tube it can be of good entertainment. Mayka

I particularly liked the question/answer in the first comment: "What is it here that never changes? Experience that directly." Who'd have thought that Youtube could be so instructional?

Eqanimity indeed... Actually, it's kinda embarrasing to say because it's such a cliche, but India does seem to be a place conducive to 'spiritual' epihanies, and I was not spared. Briefly, I was exposed to the teachings of Nisargadatta Maharaj (a disciple of Ramana Maharshi) and Dzogchen (I'm planning on staying at the monastry sometime in the next year or so). Maybe more on that later. Mike From: ED <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Fri, 1 April, 2011 22:52:25 Subject: Re: [Zen] Why bother with Zazen? Better Orgyhouse Mikeji, What was your 'India experience'? I know you were in India recently, and visited Arunachala, I think. A friend of mine who is a devotee of Ramana Maharshi reported having psychic experiences when in Arunachala. --ED --- In [email protected], mike brown <uerusuboyo@...> wrote: > > ED, > > Slowly but surely you're ever creeping forward to my India 'experience' ; ) > > Mikeji
