I think I might. I'm coming to really appreciate the power of the sharpness of zen. They have that discipline of a martial art. Its like a martial art of doing nothing (or everything).

If you have never yet done, may I recommend your reading the novel Siddhartha -- it's a book I loved, and I suspect you may love it, too.
