Butterfly Bee

Struck me that Muhammad Ali’s boxing philosophy of
‘Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee’
seems somewhat aligned to the Diamond Sutra’s philosophy of
‘Not being attached anywhere, yet giving rise to the mind [of Bodhicitta].’

The difference is that Ali’s application is worldly and the sutra’s is spiritual!
