A teaching cannot be whole and perfect

Shunryu Suzuki Transcript

Sunday April 16, 1967
Old Bush Street Zendo
Tony Artino notes

---------------------------

A teaching cannot be whole and perfect because it, like a medical prescription, is specific to certain people and circumstances. The Diamond Sutra is probably the closest to a universal teaching because it was a teaching the Buddha addressed to his own deep self.
