[Buddha-l] Prapanca

There is an inescapable logical paradox in saying that the falling away of
mindfulness is easily noticed. But this is more than just wordplay - for at
least two reasons. First of all, becoming aware of unmindfulness is the very
process of "waking up". Second of all, as Mumon once observed, "To always be
alert and clear is to wear chains and an iron yoke."
Curt Steinmetz

Sounds like Mumon was a poet.
