    Belief and intellectual understanding help to frame our practice and keep us on the right path so that we can know truth through direct experience. Two sides of the coin, if you will...

    Trust in the teachings
    Maintain belief
    But keep on sitting

    Toward a wall in my flat
    And see the pizza's the same as the bear.

    (Sorry, it's been a long couple of days. Also, I live in a house.)
