Zen

I recently wrote about the value of giving up attachments to ideas, which is a key part of Buddhism, for Adaptive Management. My colleague Scott Field added another nugget of Zen wisdom relevant to Adaptive Management:

"Seeking the Buddha is much like riding an ox in search of the ox itself."

This from a book on Zen Buddhism. Just replace "Buddha" with Adaptive Management. Works for me.
