Improve
In this way, our understanding of Buddha's
teaching improved more and more. Finding out how we should improve and accept
Buddha's teaching as a perfect teaching is the effort we have been making. So
Buddhism should change, it should not be completed. One after another, we must
have new teachers, and we must improve our understanding of the teaching from
an immature one to a mature one. We should study this sutra with this in mind.
Did you understand what I'm trying to say? --------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-10-00-C as found on shunryusuzuki.com. Edited by DC - Going through Suzuki lectures and posting anything that can stand on its own. Not looking for zingers or "the best of." I find that following these excerpts daily provides another way to experience Suzuki's teaching. - DC
