sitting on soft silky cushions...so the derriere does not feel the pain is this zen? and as for handwoven mats...well well...they too are not zen nor is the incense if you sit for 5 mins or 300 mins..or days in silent retreats what is the point? if you still cling to the silky cushion, bow to the golden statue in your mind and whisper chants in goobly gook the real world... how do you operate there on a daily basis is the burning question? merle Edgar, After a man has had the cure, only maintenance doses to the proper titration are needed.
