Thank you!  I have a large library of books about martial arts and I don't have room for much more.

Hoarding and Zen isn't what I asked for.  If you can't do what I want, I won't be buying your Tupperware.  It's overpriced, and the parties aren't that much fun.

I have copies of the Diamond Sutra and the Heart Sutra with translation and commentary by Red Pine.  I also have a book with snippets of many sutras.  I like Red Pine because he speaks fluent Chinese and also gets help with Sanskrit and Tibetan versions and commentaries before he finalizes.
I have been reading the Diamond Sutra lately, quite a bit.  I have some of the Dalai Lama's books and he told me I should read all the sutras!  I have heard of the Tipitaka or Tripitaka.  One day, may I collect all the sutras i will become wise beyond all measure.




I'd kick some Sanskrit in your eyes and make you look bad in front of Red Pine just to see how you'd react.

I'm not a buddhist master, I am a master of life.

The Blind Ass said:
...Once we, as a separate self, see that we are resisting our experience,

we will undoubtedly try

and not resist, which is just another, more subtle form of resistance, ....

.... as we are no longer resisting our resistance, and have thus snapped out of our infinite regression. The resistance then reveals itself to be the very vehicle through which we have deepened our realization, as we have embraced even the part of ourselves that is non-embracing.




this is how i understand your post:

"... we will undoubtedly try ... "
yes the key word here is try

letting go may happen in stages
that is also a key
if one needs to cry but has repressed it
then crying is letting go

but then, when we pay close attention to crying itself
it too is seen to be alternating
contraction and expansion

something releases
then something resists and constricts

hence the breathing pattern that goes with it

if we judge our crying
that is perhaps like the double bind you speak of

learning to let go is a process
like learning to walk
falling down
and getting back up
are both part of the process

OK but unless you have immorality, your mastery is doomed!

Should read SoulSword by Roshi Vernon Kitabu Turner. He is a literal Master and Holy Man of God.

Just set the example and allow them to see the power of a righteous man or woman.
