Enslaved

We are enslaved by some idea, you know . Innumerable words come to you one after another and you're chasing after words - sacrificing the birds you hear. That is how we get lost in this world where we have too much fun.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- from the outtake of Shunryu Suzuki talking in the film Sunseed. Complete transcript of what he said is on Shunryu Suzuki dot com  as is the video and on Youtube also. Find that and more at this this link to Zen in America - Sunseed in the video section.
