<p>My [']sister['] said [in a hypothetical situation that
|

may or may not smell of emotional abuse through neglect
|
||||||
|
or indifference on the part of the care-givers] that
|
||||||
|
babies eat feces [partly] because they don't know that it's not
|
||||||
|
food.

|

<p>A parent - what would a parent do? A parent wouldn't join the baby in eating
|
||||||
|
feces. A parent might stop the baby.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><i>from the writer: "Jesus said: 'Which one among you,
|
||||||
|
if your son comes to you, and asks you for a bread-morsel,
|
||||||
|
or bread, would give him... her... them... a deadly dose
|
||||||
|
of poison from the deadliest snake that you can find?
|
||||||
|
Or, who among you would give your sons a stone, if they
|
||||||
|
ask you for water? If, then, you, who are evil, know
|
||||||
|
how to do good to your son, then what more, your Father -
|
||||||
|
who is in Heaven, and rules the Universe - who is good?
|
||||||
|
And his name is hallowed. And He is blessed.'"

<p>It's increasingly becoming clear to me that zazen cannot
|
||||||
|
be not good for nothing.
|

</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>Zazen that is good for nothing may be the most parental
|
||||||
|
thing to pass on to suffering people. Of course you suffer
|
||||||
|
if you eat feces, right?
