12.03.1999 - Interpretation of dali48

Zen is not a philosophy - it is a healthy way to live...
"Well, what do you want to know about Zen"? - We were so exhausted (6,5 h train ride to the monastery plus meditation in the main hall) that we could only reply weakly: "Nothing, nothing at all!" - "Then better go to sleep (at 8.30 pm) because we get up at 3.30 in the morning" - "Pleasant Dreams!" ...
The priests, rabbis, and clerics evidently had no personal experience of "God," a God whom they preached so tacitly - so their sermons and ceremonies were so stale and lifeless... - If you can take the monastic life and gain enlightenment, then you will be master of your life instead of its slave... - After enlightenment, however, it does not bother me anymore. Now I am completely one with everything I do - I accept pleasant things as pleasant and repulsive things as repugnant - and then I forget the two reactions immediately... (P. Kapleau)

Golden Snow I believe that Zen is the only way we can truly know God, He is not of the rushing world and he does not worry about time. I have grown closer to God in the forest than anywhere else dsli48. I love this caption quote: completely one with everything I do - I accept pleasant things as pleasant and repulsive things as repugnant - and then I forget the two reactions immediately... (P. Kapleau) unquote.... so true so very true...
