A good read. In particular, I have been thinking of late of the danger of filling one's life with Buddhism and thinking of oneself as a Buddhist, forgetting that Buddhism is only a means to an end. We should always remember that, though we may have crossed the stream, we cannot be free if we insist on carrying the raft around on our shoulders.

I think it is useful to regularly remind ourselves that our reading and listening, etc, and the knowledge they bring, are ultimately to be abandoned.
