Nothing to or Who

There is no reason why we should be chained or we should be bound by an illusion of time or space. Time is time of space; space is space of time. There is no [laughs], you know, time only. When we say time, space follows. So some adjective is necessary. It's better to say time-like space or space-like time is more appropriate. And time-like space or space-like time is nothing but the dynamic change of our world, or the dynamic determination of all existence. With nothing to determine or who determines. It is automatic, you know, the change of things. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture 66-08-19-C as found on shunryusuzuki.comCopy and paste the name into the search box there to get to the transcript.. Edited by DC - Shunryu Suzuki lecture excerpts on cuke.com - from there links to much more. - Go to cuke.com What's New [now at blogger] to see more daily posts.
