Our way of life should be more stable, and more
wide, and more open to everyone. Keeping something just within yourself is one
of the violationsof our precepts. Whether
it may be material or spiritual, not to open up for others is violations of
the precepts. Our mind should be open to everyone. If you want to open up your
mind, you should resume your true mind or essence of mind according to the Sixth Patriarch. --------------------------------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture 67-12-05-B as found on shunryusuzuki.com.
