Kind of like if you pronounced them "beyng" and "doyng".

I think it would be bad if they did *less*, although they would be safer to eat.<BR/><BR/>I guess I don't want zen-like calm then, since, I'm in favor of doing. Maybe the word I'm looking for is "serenity" except I don't necessarily want to accept the things I cannot change. That's sort of the death of arts. I would be nice to have more skill at battle picking and the ability to remain unfazed. Calm in the midst of calm or in the midst of turmoil. That's closer.Charles Céleste Hutchinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18123138871494922485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3808484.post-1136257504214617862006-01-03T03:05:00.000+00:002006-01-03T03:05:00.000+00:00more being! less doing!*that's* zen.more being! less doing!<BR/>*that's* zen.Jean Siriushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13614341661136193624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3808484.post-1136216098255072522006-01-02T15:34:00.000+00:002006-01-02T15:34:00.000+00:00Aren't Zen buddhists vegetarian?
