The problem I have with Buddhism is that every old dharma teacher looks the same: powerful in mind and spirit, but frail in body. I want the embodied version of Buddhism—one that unites spiritual insight with AI, information theory, physics, biology, health/medicine, and evolution. These fields all point to the same truth: the body is an energy system. It's not meant to be still. It's meant to move, pulse, vibrate, and express. The old Buddhists are so unhealthy because in their quest to sit quietly with suffering they are trashing their bodies. Our bodies are energy systems, constantly in motion, literally vibrating all the way down. As soon as you get the insight of the mind from Buddhism, stop sitting and start moving.

"...Getting fresh water out of salt water. The fresh water is there, but just relaxing or letting the salt water sit in a bowl is not going to get the salt to separate out. You have to distill it. the heat of the distillery stands for the effort of the practice." — Ajahn Lee
