I think it was a Tibetan strand...I seem to recall someone saying something about "diamond way".
I suppose I can somewhat support that idea. Obsessing about something isn't a great way to do anything. My own complaint was that basically I did think that I should be more upset, at least on some level, if I learned that crimes against humanity were being committed, than I would be if that wasn't going on, and they seemed to be telling me that I was wrong about that.
What do you mean by 'should' in this context? And how did you come to that conclusion?
(I know that these questions sound rhetorical, and it may be useful in a sense to take them that way, but they're not intended to be. Rather, I'm actually curious; my mind naturally works in a rather Buddhist kind of way, and never generates that kind of conclusion except in a purely instrumental sense, and I've always wondered how normal people do it.)
