Buddhism, Pure and Simple

Merlin posted about this book here: for me, it invokes a very similar feeling as properly done GTD. GTD is about the present, the now, the next action; the next physical action. it's the same thing. embracing the now. living life as a series of present moments. 12 Comments

 I may be talking guff...Submitted by stevecooper on February 8, 2006 - 4:35am.
I may be talking guff right now, but doesn't 'mind like water' come from Zen Buddhism? I understand that Zen was popular amongst the samurai -- it gelled well with martial arts because being Mindful is a good way to avoid being cut in half by an armed maniac. A mind like water is a good way to fight with sword and spear. After it passed into modern Japanese martial arts, The David picked it up in karate and recast it for the office. So it turns out GTD already is a buddhist tract. Who'd have thought it. Who do we petition to have it recognised as a sutra? » POSTED IN:
