Re: The Death of Learning

With all due respect Sensei...I enjoyed reading your essay but for me (and remember this just me I speak for no one else) there is little if any truth to most of what you wrote...It sounds great borrowing what it does from the TAO and the Eight Fold Path but it's no where near the kind of revealation about "knowledge" I have experianced in all my years of Zazen or Aikido...

As my wonderful Roshi once put it Make Love Drive Freeway...

Knowledge is a sword. I must learn to wield it with both love and compassion... All these "things" must be known to me in order to share them with the other.

Respectfully,

William Hazen
