    The subconscious seems to ‘loosen’ during zazen. Take responsibility for the discoveries of your own subconscious properties. We talked about how we are unaware of the subconscious till the property comes into our consciousness and thus our awareness. We can not be aware of our subconscious. Can we be responsible for what we are unaware of? This reminded us of the Gatha of Atonement and Right Mind.

    Drivel turns into balderdash.

    Feels like mister relative is dancing with miss absolute. Proceed from silence.

    Geese like milk? Who knew?

    Culture, time and distance are operating in our understanding of Zen. Some of these metaphors seem obscure and not that helpful.

    Again, we are all recovering assholes.

    IS SCIENCE GOOD?
    IS POETRY GOOD?

    Speaking or not, you cannot escape karma. We are fighting phantoms that do not exist. We spent the last few minutes talking about generational karma. Sons, daughters and especially fathers.
