To this end, let something go - for a moment from which you think
that you deserve it - for example something that you enjoy doing -
something that you like or think is important - Examined it again and
again, until you realize how fleeting it is - Then you will say to you at
some point: "I don't need it I can do without it" - This is the moment
of truth... (Ayya Khema)

Native Americans medicinally used
about 2,500 of the approximately 20,000 plant species - that are native to
North America... - Some
researchers trained in both western and traditional Chinese medicine -
have attempted to deconstruct ancient medical texts in the light of
modern science... - Sick animals tend to forage plants rich
in secondary metabolites - such as tannins and alkaloids - Since these
phytochemicals often have antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal and

discovery of future cures for disease... (Wikipedia)

interest in both Zen and Shin (and Far Eastern philosophy in general)
to the West... -Suzuki studied at Tokyo University. When he was young, Suzuki had set
about acquiring knowledge of Chinese, Sanskrit, Pali, and several
European languages... - Carl Jung wrote of him: “Suzuki's works on Zen Buddhism

cannot be sufficiently grateful to the author, first for the fact of
his having brought Zen closer to Western understanding - and secondly for
the manner in which he has achieved this task." - But Jung was also
critical, warning against an uncritical borrowing from Asian
spirituality... (Wikipedia)
