		<description>This also relates to the precepts we are working on at the Zen center. In Zen there are whats called the three pure precepts.....

The first is &quot;Cease from evil, release all self-attachment&quot;, evil here means thoughts and actions that support separation and delusion. Cease these kinds of thoughts and release attachment to the self or separation or simply let go and become present.

The second is &quot;Do only good, take selfless action&quot;, From that state of presence and surrender, act, let action emerge from the place of stillness or the place of no-self or one-self. That is doing good.

The third is &quot;Do good for others - embrace all things and conditions, this is true service, from a place of presence and acting out of stillness we see our interconnection with all and we naturally and simply do good for others, as naturally as our right hand would pull our left hand free if it was caught in barbed wire.</description>
