it seems to me you're still dealing with it at the conceptual level

mmmm... partially. I suppose a point weaved in there that wasn't spelled out directly is the concept of moving beyond the conceptual level - through that abandonment of dualistic thinking. opening up into the full-spectrum, it's not so much conceptual as perceptive anymore.

got a number of books on-the-go already, but added this one to my Wish List. thanks for the recommendation. :-)
