ED,
Thank you for your concern. I thank you. Let me say a few things about
the value of my posts.
* My teacher does not want us to record, memorize, take notes,
catalog his speeches, because when the moment passes, they are no
longer valid, because they will be out of context --- emotional,
logical, sequential and circumstantial context. So did Buddha and
Jesus.
* My teacher always remind us that Diamond Sutra said nothing. It
is just a tool for awakening.
* My posts are not mine. Most of my posts are borrowed, copied,
plagiarized from some where. They are very very narrow in scope,
while I suppose to cover ALL, because that is what Chan is. Chan
is ALL. Therefore my posts are always partial and incomplete by
nature.
* My posts server one purpose, to awaken someone. Often that
someone may not be the person named in the post.
* To conclude, my posts contains no value, especially after the effect.
Thank you for thinking of me.:-)
Have a nice day.
JM

Bill,
In your opinion, is this below an acceptable 'Zen' teaching, or is
it an unnecessary accretion to Zen?
JMJM, the above is an honest and straightforward question, which I
hope does not offend you.
Thanks, ED
