A note about mindfulness, that happened to be about the word ‘mindful’:
Thank you for using publishing my review, which you found online at http://buddhistchannel.tv/index.php?id=12,6163,0,0,1,0 I read through it and saw an amendment. The word ‘mindful’ in the sentence – ‘In their course of guerrilla filmmaking, the buddies go bumbling around with shabby makeshift props, half-witted scripts and ridiculous acting (which is of course mindful good acting here – if you know what I mean).’ – was changed to ‘mindfully’, which is not needed (and even wrong) – as I was equating the paradox of ‘ridiculous acting’ as being ‘mindful good acting’. In other words, like the usage of ‘ridiculous’ as an adjective, ‘mindful’ is used in a parallel way as an adjective too; not as an adverb (e.g. ‘ridiculously’ or ‘mindfully’).
Please notify me in the future, of usage of articles by me and of any suggested changes, as I might have improved versions elsewhere, and that the changes might not be needed. Telling me what changes are needed helps to mindfully improve my English too. (Luckily, the above error is small, or an erratum would be needed.)
Writers should be informed when their writings are edited – out of respect for their works, and lest their intended meanings are unmindfully changed. Writers are not always right. But editors are not always right either. Communication and discussion is crucial for the best of collaborated results.
