perhaps a more elegant  statement  about sitting, i'm not just stirring, it's really a huge issue of people going down the wrong road, zen for instance is just full of idiots regurgitating cliches ! i don't think  springwater  has the same issues, but all the same people do not look widely enough. life is some vast nutcase illusion : o (

meister eckhart sermon  15 

basically he says that if you're on the right track, something that seems a total waste of time like me posting on the hardcore zen blog, things shift and since there is some base guiding by infinity, you have worked through something to get to a better spot so in reality it wasn't a waste of time, but really a learning experiece you have to go through to get to a new level of understanding so to speak !

in the case of the hardcorezen blog thats seeing the utter rigidity of adults, the engraving of futilestupidity by zazen, how root situations cannot changed and religion is utterly and penally INSANE !

re that video, don't look at the pictures while listening to the sermon, tho they are interesting to go through and look at separately, they disrupt the sense of the sermon if looked at the same time, the speaking part has no music, but i quite liked the symphony no. 8, op. 124 by malcom arnold !

i don't think zazen is crazy, it really is crazy and makes for crazies !

makyo

voice recorders more use than zazen

the sony ICD-BX112 or ICD-PX312 mono recording is better for these purposes

ah i think the vision thing i don't have to discuss and actually it's best not discussed and actually the nature of these things is um they are not really conveyable anyway

and john of the cross's um picture of his vision doesn't convey much it actually takes the man who didn't have the vision, salvador dali to draw something

a reasonable translation of the platform  sutra 

zen these days, a sheet of white paper with illegible drawls by colourless people !

mysterion writes ( on the hardcore zen blog)

"careful, your delusions of grandeur are showing through."

my reply:

you have never had an authentic vision so you will never understand !

i didn't want the transmission and didn't even believe in the mind to mind thing but it happened and i can't repudiate it so i am just doing things in a quiet way !

i'm going to approve tess hughes, she has had an authentic  vision

look for her in the panel on the right !

she actually saw something and was able to see what took her there and how to get back and remember it !
