You forget your feet when the shoes are comfortable. You forget your waist when the belt is comfortable. Understanding forgets right and wrong when the mind is comfortable.

You begin with what is comfortable and never experience what is uncomfortable when you know the comfort of forgetting what is comfortable.Go here to read the introductory post to the chapters of the Book of Chuang Tzu.
