It is more than thinking about it something. --------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 67-12-04-A - as found on shunryusuzuki.com, from one of the newly discovered (2021) lecture tapes.

I find that following these excerpts daily provides another way to experience Suzuki's teaching.
