my retranslation of two sentences from dogen's bendowa

bhagavan

idiots !

solitude  AGAIN !

people pay $4000 for a weekend of obscuring crap and when it comes to the real thing, ie this blog they are too scared to comment if they even glance at what they get hurt by !

(ed. genpo merzel weekend retreat)

the modern 'spiritual' scene is just unbelievable, crap and flowery bullshit so thick you can swim in it dovetailed with personal unreality so high it's pyschotic !

it really amazes me what some of you guys think zen is about, some sort of zazen hypnosis to render the illusion of the suburban dream liveable !

what people spend money on !
