All of this handwringing about conciseness is ultimately about morality. Should you feel bad about crushing a bug? How bad should you feel?

Destroying beautiful things, destroying complex things, especially complex things that you don't understand strikes me as significant.

It's why you feel something when you see a mandala erased from the sand. It's why that erasure is incorporated into the tradition.

Sweeping the floor is not the same if there is a mandala.
