« Sambo of Sunyata »
Wednesday, November 2, 2011 When faced with physical threat, be 100% body.
When faced with symbolic* threat, be 0% mind**.
Put differently, when dealing with anything that is not-you, be you***.
Call it Sambo**** of Sunyata*****.
*note that, ontologically speaking, there is no difference between the physical and the symbolic
**zero percent mind = no mind = 100% body
***note that, ontologically speaking, there is no difference between you and not-you
****Sambo: Soviet martial art, stands for "weapons-free self-defense"
*****Sunyata: Sanskrit for "zero, nothing;" doctrine of emptiness/non-selfhood
