I Am Moonlighting For The Buddha.

The Function Of The West Is To Turn Bodies And Minds Into Products. It Cannot Understand That The Rest Of The World Holds This To Be An Obscenity, A Corruption Of Our Nirvanic Nature.

You Don't Understand. I Only Prostitute The Part Of The Body That Isn't Important, And Nobody Suffers Except My Karma A Little Bit. I Don't Do Big Harm. You Prostitute Your Mind. Mind Is Seat Of Buddha. What You Do Is Very Very Bad. You Should Not Use Your Mind In That Way

Shun Security, I Advise Aspiring Novelists When They Complain To Me That They Are Stuck. Get Disoriented. Maybe Your Agonizing Writing Block Isnt Agonizing Enough. Your Enemy Is Comfort.

I Think It Is Immensely Difficult To Get The U.s. Interested In Non-u.s. Topics. I Dont Think This Is Because The Average American Reader Is Disinterested, But More Because Of Publishers Playing It Safe: If A Thriller Based In L.a. Is A Sure Winner, Why Spend Money Plugging One Based In Paris - Or Bangkok?

Expecting To Be Wrong About Most Things Most Of The Time Brings, Finally, The Kind Of Humility That Leads To Peace. I Think.
