I've been reading No Mud, No Lotus recently (https://www.parallax.org/product/no-mud-no-lotus/) by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh and this is very much the same advice.

This book has brought me immense joy, I'd recommend it to anyone.

It's fascinating how much Buddhism has gotten "right".

I certainly agree with your take on Buddhism, but I often find that sage advice is buried amongst spiritual waffle in Buddhist books.

But that's what religion is, wisdom and nonsense mixed together by people who didn't yet have the benefit of the great filter to separate the wisdom from the nonsense: science.

The sheer number of annoying twats who tell me that The Book of I Ching holds great secrets has defnitely helped obscure any great secrets it contains.

Thank you, I'll pick it up based on your recommendation alone.

This article is about ACT which borrows these techniques from the ancient stoics, but there is a lot of similarities between stoicism and buddhism, zen especially.
