   I used to think I understood "zen mind is everyday mind"   
   then I realized it was conceptual.   
   Now I've settled with a much simpler formulation:   
   "everyday mind is everyday mind"   
   which leaves you exactly where you are.   
      
   Honestly I'm not sure there's much of an advantage in that,   
   but it has the advantage at least of being the truth.
