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.
From Self... Challenge to the Mind.
It is extremely challenging to look at the question, "who am I?" Every answer just comes back to the question. There is no-one there! For how can the awareness of "I" possibly look at itself? It can only BE awareness itself, which is everywhere and everything and words can merely point to what is already so, has always been so and will always be so. Timeless, therefore beyond reason, defying all attempts at analysis. Intelligence more powerful than the mind that creates a form of fear in the mind. That's the challenge Self puts before the mind. . We can know it when we see it, but we cannot wrap it up in a perfect memory to draw on when we need it. It is now.. All the time it is now. We are already there!
