The Law of Dependent Origination

Maharajee: All form is within law. One person cannot do two things at one time. You experience yourself as your own creation and are perfectly free to change it. That's the essence of good teaching. Jack Cornfield, who wrote a very nice book about Terravad and Buddhist masters, says there's really nothing to it. He says if you see somebody walking down the gutter on the left, you say, hey, go right in the gutter! If they start to fall on the right, you say,. hey, go left!"
