He said that it's not the person that creates, but what's out of balance in the person. Maybe as we get older and our oscillations slow down, some semblance of balance happens. Dunno, but I appreciated the authors pseudonym. <br /><br />Playing music used to be the most important thing in the world for me. Now I'm content to listen to others play. What was effortless and needful has become onerous and needless. I guess the Taoist view would be that I'm struggling against the flow less, just trying to keep to the slow and deep currents that are less exciting.<br /><br />As an aside, if Frown Strong is right, the god of the creationists must have been way out of balance.olcharliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00309255390011851502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904219782540965444.post-38490236067380062632011-10-17T09:27:55.139-04:002011-10-17T09:27:55.139-04:00Hi Genkaku

I enjoyed your book and usually find your daily musings to be interesting. I haven't been at this zen malarkey for long and it is sometimes helpful to get an insight into the thoughts and experiences of a layperson who has had much more time at it. <br /><br />Cheers<br /><br />AndyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
