Aloha Joshua,
Welcome, and thanks for the excellent link. I went to quickly bookmark it,
and just *had* to keep reading...I'm into the second example farmer now...
This would be great reading for any PC course or practitioner or just anybody.
I've already seen a majority of PC principles, presented in different words,
in the parts of the article I've read thus far.
Also has its contradictions, like PC - almost identical in some cases, for
example this citation:
"And yet throughout my interactions with Shumei members I was struck by signs
of impurity that seemed contradictory. A farming sensai (revered teacher)
talked deeply about ecology then smoked cigarettes and drank coffee with
creamer from a tube."
cheers,
John S.
