who would wear a French-cut silk shirt:
The reflector telescope I thought would unlock
the mysteries of the heavens
but which I only used once or twice
to try to find something heavenly
in the windows of the high-... read more

LETTING GO

For minds obsessed by compulsive thinking and
grasping, you simplify your meditation practices to
just two words -- "let go" -- rather than try to
develop this practice, and then develop that, achieve
this, and go into that. The grasping mind wants to
read the suttas, to study the Abhidamma, and to learn
Pali and Sanskrit, then the Madhyamika and the Prajna
