Well, you have to overcome desire, frst, as is taught by the Buddha, translated from the very earliest Thai texts available:

Verily, in seeking Right Eating, shun desire above all things. Remember the ancients who spake, saying, "Waist not, want not."

'Course that's from the King James version. Your mileage may vary!!

I have a theory that much like coat hangars, odd socks, the tops to pens and other objects of our object-ridden existence, there is a metaphysical exchange that happens to lost virtues, compromised principles and abandoned points of view. My theory is that they come back to haunt you as interesting experiences.

Has anyone else noticed this??
