paying it forward

[doc benway]

with gratitude to a beautiful Panda and in honor of the dangerous deci belle for the astute selection -

For your reading and enlightening pleasure, I will send this book to one who chooses wisely -

 

Cultivating the Empty Field: the silent illumination of Zen master Hongzhi

 

Pick a number 1 - 200, and I'll check back soon.

Not sure when - sorry

 

To the winner -

I'd suggest you start at the beginning of the practice manual

paying it forward is the only way in my experience...

 

or rather, giving it/being it now... I still contend, the most valuable thing you can give anyone, is your full, undivided attention.

Well deserved!

 

I'll win one of these days, and when I do, the look on the unlucky sod's face who has to post it to China will be priceless....(but in the end I'd pay for it )

Steve,

 

Clearly you did not understand my guess which was 132. Simply reverse the number 231, then deduct the original from the reverse = 99. Add the digits of the original 1+ 3+2 =6 ... double the six to reflect the dualistic nature of reality =12 add 12 to 99 = 111. therefore implicit in my answer was the winning number. QED.

Thanks so much Steve, I am really looking forward to exploring this!

 

And I've created a new thread to continue the tradition.
