I am really not very well acquainted with the literature, still less with the practice of yoga and Zen. But on one point I am fully in agreement, that is, all is illusion.
“Part of what dissent has to do is stay a half a step ahead of the process of commodification in order to keep that edge that is the edge of life. That’s something that artists always understand, that they’re just one six-month-period away from being trite. Even in this moment, I can feel my own triteness building behind me like Marvell’s chariot.”
