Cass, look it over again and then read the quote from "The Diamond
Sutra" below. All it says, in the words of Alfred Korzybski, is "the
map is not the territory." Once we learn this,we can upset the poem
and the piece of Suta below it. Words can never replace reaities,
and that is all I am trying to get across. This is not, for the
record, "existentialism," but Buddhist doctrine with an Islamic
twist. I'm sorry you didn't understand or like it.
