Naked Lunch

I remember an old Buddhist saying about eating that goes soethig iike this, "7 parts doctor 3 parts Buddha". Yesterday when i was eating my lunch with chopsticks (because I still can't use metal) I saw this saying on the end of my chopsticks. Really I saw it in the relationship between the rice, sticks, table, and me. When I stopped eating, and saw the lunch naked and empty, the relationship naturally comes out. The lunch stopped being lunch. The food stopped being food. And the relationships naturally formed.

The point is not about eating, losing weight, or losing weight. The point is about you and your relationship to reality. If you pay attention to the present moment, and see what is naked in front of you, a whole new universe can open up in front of you.
