When you have a new experience, at first you may
form a greater belief. And you may even cry over this new experience because it
is so different from the experiences you have had, and because it is too real
to you. That is because your practice is still lacking. In other words, you
have to practice until you become accustomed to new experiences and can digest
them and act properly according to them. This kind of understanding is
necessary. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture 67-08-02- as found on shunryusuzuki.com.
