Re: Theos-World A Poem and an Explanation

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.
