Politicians, preachers, pedophiles, Mao, puzzles, Ursula K. LeGuin, and instant zen

***

Politicians and preachers are ambitious pedophiles.

"Find truth in facts." Mao

The future is the leading cause of the present.

Milk and butter come from our ancestors, now cows. The cow was an auspicious instrument.

Expectations bastardize experience.

The mind's purpose is to see essence, not existence. The senses, sense essence.

Puzzles are solicitous and demanding. Existence is the grand-daddy of them all.

The Dispossessed by Ursula K. LeGuin expresses the myth of anarchy due to the pressure of community and law.

Tapping a finger on one's leg, one can experience a zen moment at any time one focuses on the tapping during any other activity. Spontaneous zen.
