so, true...and still only the primordial emptiness pervades this reality. fundamentalists should address themselves more seriously; their condition; and their future rebirths. nothing here is black and white like that. it's all so decisively grey - unless, of course, the question is whether you are in nirvana or not. that's pretty black and white to me.
nice to find your blog. i live in dc proper and am seeking a new tradition.
