开悟的箭?Arrows of Enlightenment?

莲厨再谈 [沉默是金]

Lotuschef on [Silence is Golden] again - Zen Flavo...

Extract from the above:-

[There is a process here, similar with cultivation.

4 Noble Truths' process:
Accept there is a [Problem];
Define the [Problem];
Seek out [Origin of Problem];
Employ [Noble 8 Fold Paths] to [Solve the Problem}!

That is firstly, there is [Habit], What is this [Habit], Seek the [Origin of this Habit], employ  [Noble 8 Fold Paths]  to  [Correct or Change this Habit]!
It is that [Simple]!!! Hahaha!
]

Someone remarked that I am unusual because I used lyrics to a canto-pop song that I wrote as Enlightenment Arrows! 

Hehehe! 

Can I or Can't I? :)

I don't think there is any difference, do you?

I believe that if I can explain to Guru why I chose those words and what I want to put across, thats the deciding factor of whether I understand the First Elemental Truth or not, agree? :)

Another remark was why I don't send it to Guru by post or other visible or usual means.

Letters to Guru are answered by the team of VMs in Central Administration all along. 

There are times that letters just somehow disappeared too! 

Why do I need to go through so many "hands" to communicate with Guru?

I chat with Guru all the time, believe or not up to you. :)

During our chat, I just jokingly said: Shizun, I want to shoot arrows. Hahaha! 

Guru smiled and nodded.

So I started with Arrow 1 and explaining my take and then Arrow 2.

It is not the Certification of Enlightenment that is important here but my expressing my take of the First Elemental Truth. 

Remember there is No Absolute Right & Wrong? 

That's enough! 

Cultivation is truly very private and between the Teacher and the Student! 
Each Student learns at his/her own pace and The Teacher will also guide the Student along accordingly! :)

Cheers all.
