Even more so!

If a 10th dan BB, with his last bit of energy, breaks wind in an empty forest before he dies, does it make noise if there’s no one to hear it…or smell it…if it’s an SBD?

I try to ungrasp double negatives. j/k

don't hang on to truth, falsity or appearances of the truth. basically this means to me, don't allow ourselves to get tunnelvision.

Self rightousness,
Lies to bolster oneself,
Accusations over mediation.

My post was a more pragmatic one. In another more philosphical vein:

1) Causing suffering to others. Self rightous exclamations.

2) Causing suffering to one self. Lying to ease one's sense of lacking in how you perceive others to view you.

3) Finding truth (knowing yourself) and avoiding conflict...mediation over contention.

Zen is a razor to cut off birth and death. Zen is a mirror to distinguish the beautiful and the ugly. Zen is a sword to slice away error and delusion. Zen is an axe to cut down a forest of brambles....

Zen sounds like a pretty useful tool. Maybe I'll trade it in for my handy dandy Swiss knife.
