In America the successful writer or picture-painter is indistinguishable from any other decent businessman. [Sinclair Lewis]

Briefing on Quite Enduring Works

Briefing cat Who endures, can be privileged. It could also work the other way. So a few hints may be needed to make the enduring fit or better.
       Follow your deep heart feelings in these matters, please. The inner voice has to be guided by values: (1) One value is "protection"; (2) another is "rise above". (3) To learn to observe or look intently is fit too.
  1. Thus, as you read one or more of these works, try to be truly and fully protected. Interestingly, one inner, organic and felt "fiercely" helps self-protection too. Non-sinister rage is at time activated in tune with it, for the sake of protection.
          
  2. One has to try to rise above infiltrating demagoguery, blunderbuss propagation, and bizarre outlooks which may be all too ample in sordid waters, where people don't think all right. There are good books on how to. Tony Buzan has some excellent points in a book of his, Speed Reading. [Tor]
          
  3. Buzan also teaches people to study intently in very good ways. [Our study page]
Try to stick to these three principles in good ways. If not, in any ways you can reach at the time if you don't do damage. On top of it, go for tenable good conclusions mainly. They are had through ascertaining this and that. If the "ground" is not firm, don't make up your mind very firmly, but arrive at loose and open-ended (tentative) personal opinions. That makes a difference, as the truly valuable points may not be as many as gurus would have us believe. In fact, the universally fit and good points are often absent. One danger is that some learn to "croak" well in the absence of inherent salience of their phrases.
       Interestingly, endurance implies that not all is good. Recognising it is allied with the opposite of hypocricy, and can be used terapeutically as well.
       A person needs to learn to endure his or her family, more or less independence, the station in life, being talked down to by his (her) betters, and so on. This is allowed to take place because there may be less danger in enduring well than in preparing for revolts, upheavals, revolutions and gross carnages.
       Welcome to this broad data base of online classics and other works. Who endures these works gets information from a selection of works that are called rather enduring ones so far.

Sage Words

Tut "Usually, so much effort is put into achieving one goal, that the other goals cannot be attained. But what about the man who strives to attain the Dharma? If he succeeds he has gained in that one goal far more . . .," writes Han Shan (1546-1623), and "Those who are . . . noble in the Buddha's Way always retain their wealth."

"The enlightened understand life and death." - Han Shan
