I’m beginning to understand that my drawing of a hard-edged line between imaginary thought and “real” action might be a mistake. As Geshe Kelsang Gyatso points out, all human creations had their origin in our imaginations. Cathedrals and computers didn’t just magically appear; someone had to think of them, and draw up plans. And then, of course, they had to follow through on an intention to build them.
