From the transcript 2009.09.03:
Stim Morane: Suppose that you are working in your ordinary life with the general topic of codependent arising.
Stim Morane: Imagine, then, that we have a specific homework assignment of seeing what's going on with instances of anger, depression or fear.
Stim Morane: Tell me: based on your current understanding, what sorts of things would you expect to notice re these three states, as examples of codependent arising?......................................................
Stim Morane: codependent arising is something that can be thought about, considered etc., or it can be seen more directly
Stim Morane: the former is good, the latter is truly liberating
Stim Morane: because, the latter shows that the very things that bind us up are themselves "empty" or "open"
Stim Morane: so we are free
Stim Morane: we don't have to struggle with the habitual framings etc., we can really let go.......................................................
Stim Morane: even "I'm breathing" can be seen in the light of this teaching
Stim Morane: there are many things we do, out of habit, in "I'm breathing now" that are actually unnecessary, or limiting, or obscuring of freshness or inclusiveness
Stim Morane: start with "I'm breathing", then open it up
