JNW Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I just started reading Zen and the Art of Archery. Herrigel recommends some works by Suzuki and I am intrigued by his Zen and the Samurai. I can’t find any written versions, just audio. Anyone know where I might find this? Thanks, Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miranda Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 ah pete, I am gunna toss some advice at you... Please put a good joke in the humor section and try expanding your reading to include maintaining machinery. Zen in this context is more of a training aide than a religious reference. miranda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still never understood how to set up a differential. Kierkegaard is an existentialist. He had many thoughts on the process, banality, and things we face in our lives. As to jokes, they self write for people who think punching a paper/steel target is anything beyond a sporting hobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miranda Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Hi Pete, you have given me a zen gift... I am pretty sure what I tried to say was not read. Where I exist, I get a choice. To assume the sharing of thoughts or other's ideas is a struggle by itself. A large hill of efforts to surmount as it were. Should I have a a proverbial motor-cycle to climb that tall hill, I would breeze up there and see a broad horizon as a reward. To add to the clear air, I expect to meet someone also enjoying the scenery. What I have is a pair of tired hiking legs and I am not sure the wide vista available is sufficient reward. so I will have to enjoy the walk without knowing I might see a big shiny view. I do hope others arrive there. the advice I nudged at you was a very mild attempt to let you know your post into a two year old thread would get you attentions you may not want. and finally, if a differential is a gearbox, most are adjusted by shims to operational tolerances. Shims are quite zen. miranda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
