Wow I love this. I really love this. And I'm convinced that this is the simple truth.<p>And you forgive me for expressing my totally personal ideas, "The essence of his story is connected with the essence of Buddhism". (Any religion is great. But I just see with the lenses in front of my mind.)
His message is great; his story amazing. But consider: for a living he gives inspirational speeches. What odds he accidentally wound up in a situation that gives him a lifetime of stories to tell?
This was pretty amazing to read:<p>> It's a long story. But the first thing is, there was one moment where there was fruit on the tree, and I'm climbing on the tree, and there was a snake on the branch, and I want the fruit. So, the snake is in trouble. So, I manage to hit the snake off the branch, and it's a deadly snake. And before I know it, I'm flying off the tree after the snake, grabbing his tail, killing that snake, peeling its skin and chewing it alive. And I feel the best I've ever felt in my life. And then I'm coming back to my senses, and I recall that just minutes ago, I was miserable. I cannot handle the situation.<p>> So, wow. And that's a very important thing that I have realized. There are a few important things. First of all, we don't need to learn survival. We know it. Nobody needs any course, any kit, any book. It's completely nonsense. We know survival very well, that's what we know best.
