Zen is a spiritual challenge to live life with awareness and focus. It is not a religion but a Way of Life. Zen can be used as a Way in any religion. Zen is a training in mindful awareness during the process of day to day life. Words can't really describe Zen, but living with Zen is spiritually empowering.
The Known and the Unkowable
The known feels comfortable because it is past and predictable. The unknowable is what is to come - what is here and now is always what is to come because it is timeless. It is pure Zen to be here now constantly connecting with truth that can liberate with bliss, or paralyze with fear. Both bliss and fear are in the relative domain of the dualistic mind. True Mind transcends the relative.
Purely Nothing
Let go and relax into nothing-ness.
I need to drop knowledge of who I am, what my name is, what my position is.
These are things that have been imposed on each one of us by society. Meant to be for convenience, my individual identity has taken on far too much importance. I need to recognize that I am empty, without meaning. Purely nothing.
