Maybe this was what you got out of the thump in your chest. Just have been in at Jerry's pages and read some stuff there. If you want to read about "enlightenment", read what's her name's story, yeah, Bernadette (my short term memory is extremely short term these days), read it and see one probably (I don't know though, maybe it's all a big hoax) very true reflection of the journey. I agree with you very much though. Speak your own truth. It is the zen koan "Speak one word of zen and I will take my hat off for you". My answer to this is for the moment: "One word is as good as the other. What is not zen and what is ?" Nevertheless, let me also say that the wind in the trees speak the truth, the hairs on the cat's back speak the truth, the pigments on the fish'es scales speak the truth. Not at all to lessen the message of your post. Love, Amanda. Angelfire for your free web-based e-mail. http://www.angelfire.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
