"it's not that we seek to destroy the ego, so much as to realize it's just a useful fiction. Shunryu Suzuki said that we have a personal self that appears and disappears. It's not a fixed thing. It exists in order that the universe might express itself, not in order that I can express my self." |

having nothing to do with good or bad,
acceptance or rejection,
one may well burst out in laughter."
