For us to accommodate thoughts of equality and freedom without difficulty, it is necessary to postulate some big fundamental idea of
non-selfish desire or limitless boundary of material or place, an idea which is not just material or spiritual. Something beyond spiritual and
material is necessary. That is so-called “non-selfishness.” --------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 69-04-08-bn - 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 - I wonder if he meant unselfishness.]
