Merle, He never sat, but walked. We mentioned here before that he had some kind of awakening looking into the family fireplace when he was 14.
A wordsmith, and probably an Advaita Vedantist, he aped Prof. D.T. Suzuki, or tried to, and was not a Zen person himself. He claimed to be an Entertainer, and he was. His work was given some electricity by the Human Potential Movement, and this also gave a kick to his popularity at California places like the Esalen Institute. Do you want to echo some point he made, or something, Merle? You're on shaky ground.
