Thanks for all the Pie Jundo.

Aren't we the "baker?" How can the baker be separate from the pie that is all?

Fun post, Jundo. I am going to save it for my collection, thank you!

Gassho and many pies.

What with pies and rice cakes, words, thoughts, sensations... a question arises, have I understood ?
Whether at the beginning, the middle or at the end of the path what is real is "experience" ?
whether I understand or not, what is real is experience (of understanding or not understanding)?
Does experience = already there ?

I think I need another taste of this pie,

gassho,

I don't have a clue who baked this tasty pie but it is delicious. If I should one day run across the baker I will tell him so and if not just continue to savor it. Perhaps knowing the baker through eating his pie is the best way of truly understanding the baker and that's enough. Perhaps not, we'll just have to wait and see ... Thanks Jundo, and if you don't mind, I'll take a piece of this pie for the road. Your effort is deeply appreciated. Gassho zak

I once baked an onion pie and no one really appreciated it like i did. Right now i have pie in my face and its going to take some time to understand why i made this mess and how to clean it up properly. I guess thats why we have something called practice.

Thanks very much for this, Jundo. My favorite pie is the cherry pie made with tart cherries. The blend is beautiful, but I forget to apply it to life. It's sometimes too easy to start drowning in the 'tart/sour' part, or to get carried away with the sweet part--I need to stay in touch with the whole so that I don't become splintered into the parts.

Thanks again Jundo. Sometimes we need to reheat the pie.

Very nice essay. Thanks.

[Yugen]

Sometimes eating the pie cold, just as it is, can be wonderful too. I love apple pie for breakfast!

I hadn't read this teaching and I found it wonderful.

Thank you, Jundo. I loved this pie.

Hey guys ... I have been working all day, tinkering with my pie recipe on this essay.

I hope you will read it and share my pie. Heck, read it again, coming back for seconds, if you've already dipped in.

I hope you find it to your liking ... not too dry, fluffy, flakey or sugary.


Gassho, Jundo (of the big sweet tooth)

Nice ... Good, pure, and wholesome pie ... without all the added preservatives.
