Today's Meditation(s):

The Pocket Thich Nhat Hanh (ed. by Melvin McLeod), The Businessless Person


The Tao that can be told.......

This idea recurs in major religious literature. It's trying to explain a sublime event in pedestrian terms. There's a reason things are called ineffable.

Enlightenment is something that can only be hinted at, only be suggested. It's too grand a state to be simply told.

So look for the signposts. Find the hints and clues and shrugs and knowing smiles and let them point me. Then I have to do the walking.
