[MD] patterns revisited

[MarshaV]

Hi Craig,

Yesterday I received an earned coupon from my favorite online 
bookstore.  It was a good time to order 'The Lightness of Being'.  I 
also ordered 'The New Physics and Cosmology Dialogues with the Dalai 
Lama'.  I find science fascinating, and think it an amazing and often 
a very workable conventional point-of-view.   Yet it is the 
Buddhist's Two Truths which holds my attention and seems to 
strengthen my understanding of the MOQ, or vice versa.  I state this 
from my limited understanding of the MOQ, Buddhism, and science.  I'm 
looking forward to reading both books.  Thanks again for the recommendation.

Marsha

The Universe is uncaused, like a net of jewels in which each is a 
reflection of all the others in a fantastic, interrelated harmony without end.
