zen is not about teachers it's about direct experience...it breaks the rules.. thus one enters the golden door holding the golden flower without the hoopla and rattatat.. it's you that worship the teacher..i do not bow to any living being and wait for orders.. merle Merle, Merle put out a sincere and well-taken cry for help: "what do you want me to say...?" This is a Zen forum. I want you to say you have NO idea about Zen teachers, because you have no experience with Zen teachers and Zen teaching situations. Honesty is the best policy. I want you to say that you regret the slander that you have laid upon same, and that you shall reform yourself to the best of your ability, with a little help from your friends. --Joe > Merle Lester wrote: > > joe...everywhere there are folk trying to say they know the way... > what do you want me to say...? > merle > > Merle, > > Commenting evidently on Teaching, Merle wrote: > > "and those who write books, give lectures and rave on while others listen on > hand woven mats nodding yes...
