When you break into this pattern, this way of thinking, you will more get accustomed to this way of life or understanding of life and some day you will actually experience, you will enjoy this kind of paradoxical world. So enjoyment is very much different from the enjoyment made by the people who just dwell on one-sided view, a one-sided understanding of life. Buddhists one one hand look very joyous people. On the other hand they are very dismal and gloomy people. [Laughter] This is also double structure. -------------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-06-28 as found on shunryusuzuki.com. Edited by DC
