if there's one thing I am picking up from reddit zen and all the other zen arseholes and idiots on the web, it's that anything authentic like this blog is only building a "brand name" so to speak, that is then trashed and abused by the zen "sex club", and endless wrong minded nits and fuckwits

that

is

I am abandoning zen because of this issue and moving across to the ultimate reality blog

i'd appreciate it if all new comments are made there, this blog will be left as is !

zen versus buddhism

reddit as purgatory ! :o()

zazen versus contemplation

reddit zen !

this is a complaint ! when I started zen, I was always following what i didn't understand and working something out, I never ever got caught up in this need to appear to know that everyone has, what i did get caught up in was wanting some sort of control or seniority in the zen system which fortunately was very far from happening.........!

if you have no honest sense of not knowing then what is the point ?

entertain yourself forever with wrong minded rubbish I guess, I don't have to put up with it, can close this board down or just leave it suspended

there is something to work out, but you don't read around enough, you don't think enough and you don't get enough solitude !

i am beginning to see the truth of this quote by emil cioran

" each of us must pay for the slightest attempted improvement he inflicts upon a universe created for indifference and stagnation, sooner or later, he will regret not having left it undisturbed ! "
