    Have you read Shunryu Suzuki? He’s passed on, and there’s not many books by him, but I loved his Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind.

    No but I plan to read that book and others on zen Buddhism soon. I’ve been putting off Zen because it looks too esoteric with those koans. Also zazen looks kinda cruel and I can only meditate sitting on a chair.

    Why need a Guru? After a while he/she will suffocate you.

    hi anita
    I’m trying to keep an open mind about Carl Jung. But you might be interested to know that I read something about Carl Jung the other day in the negative. A book called “the Jung Cult” was written by a scholar from Harvard I think. This guy said Jung was secretly hoping to create a cult of followers but not call it a cult of course, have a cloak of respectability.
    Anyway, I will try to maintain an open mind about the guy.
