I agree, Little Neo, the last sesshin I was in (a 7 day retreat) only ended in the kind of partial stillness that can be achieved by contemplating the intense vacuousness created by Celine Dion's "Theme from Titanic"; for absolute stillness only the contemplation of Neil Diamond records, Al Gore empathy tapes, and the creators of Pokemon can give us that movement past the flicker of nothingness into the full light of ultimate prajna nothingness.
yours, Peter T.
