    Jundo,

    I know. In 1000 words, there's only so much I can say. :-)

    My goal here is to present the idea; if people are interested, they'll look further. If the magazine in question takes the article, I'll certainly include a link to Treeleaf so people can find out more.

    Gassho,

      Hi Kirk,

      I understand. I feel it is a well written article, and you have a lovely writing style.

      I think it hard to write these articles for new folks who just want peace and happiness, while around here we only offer Peace and Happiness!

      Gassho, J

        It's a tough balance to explain what we do. On the one hand, it shouldn't sound like McMindfulness (I love that term!), but, on the other, it shouldn't sound too hard and esoteric.

          Oh, and thanks. (I looked for a blushing smiley, but I don't see one.)

            Hi,
            Good piece, Kirk. To the point. I feel complexity can wait for later. The whole symphony comes in its own time. But the opening bars have to be a catchy work of art.

              I think I would have appreciated reading this when I first approached Zen. I certainly do now.
