So we rather put
emphasis on the difference between each being. Although we put emphasis on
difference, we do not discriminate which is better. It
is different, but each is same value or absolute value because it is different.
When you put emphasis on universality, it means you are killing things, at
least the value of things will be ignored. True value of each existence will be
ignored. -------------------------------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture 67-12-06-B as found on shunryusuzuki.com. Edited by DC
