TAKE  NOTE OF SOMETHING DIFFERENT
 

Year Two
SESSION THIRTY-THREE

One of us better think of something new here in this note before one of us begins to get too bored with all this.

 

This note is about the animals.   They cannot understand even if they have been trained to read things like this.  It would even be cruel to say to a poor animal, “You stupid beast, you cannot understand anything!”  Such statements are best kept for dull normal humans-of-the-Earth.

 

Sure, you saw that one coming.  So what?   This note is about how one of us better think of something new about all this.  How many times do I have to repeat this to you?

 

This note is about the new, which, as you must know by now is not mere repetitions of the term, “the new”.  So there is the new (with italics) and “the new” (with scare-quotes).  Try to see the difference more extensively or go eat some dog food.

 

This note is not merely a “note”, but more importantly it is this school of Note Zen.  So wake-up to something before you go to the next school of “Note Zen” or whatever it is.

 

Going beyond terms like “The New” (J. Krishnamurti) and “Note Zen” (Po Chang), we arrive at “Basic Goodness” (Chögyam Trungpa), which then leads us into what this note is really about: versatile consciousness.  Give it a shot.
