Limiting

Some of you may try hard to study something if you like it. If you don’t like it, you don’t. You ignore it. That is not only a selfish way, but also it’s limiting the power of your study. So, you always live in a limited world. You cannot accept things as it is.

Drawing by Stan White
Stan White cuke page with links to many of his drawings.

cuke.com/ig for links to the source of the photo. Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture 69-03-15 as found on shunryusuzuki.com, edited by PF. Go to instagram.com/cuke_archives for the Instagram version.

We found the culprit - a 2002 SFZC Wind Bell had that drawing attributed to Philip Whalen rather than Stan White. I see I'd hand written on that page "Sure looks like Stan White." - thanks Peter Ford

thanks for the heads up to Beverly Horowitz that we originally had attributed the drawing incorrectly to Philip Whalen.
