there is no ceasing in the Joy and Freedom of the Self,  fanatical like negation or a lute strung to tightly will snap...  Btw. the general forum is supposedly eclectic although we tend to toot our chosen ways which is ok as long as don't negate those that are following universal like dharmas that no one owns or has a monopoly on.

good question but no they teach their child how to work with a tool. on the left- the mother teaches how to weave a mat out of plants, on the right - the father teaches how to hunt birds with a bow and arrow. the pics are quite touching actually.

I am glad you said that. Somebody else might take it for granted but I have my reservation on it. It sounds like all Chinese talks I heard in my life. I know if I ask any Chinese teacher, one will snow me with anything. I won't take it for granted but verify it with modern science.

It’s a response to “that’s basically a cop-out”, which was in response to my post:

No，Cobie, What you said is not related to anything we had discussed here.  Ok, you have fun on your vacation.
