About Me |
|
Zen goes beyond Buddha and beyond Lao Tzu. It is a culmination, a transcendence, both of the Indian genius and of the Chinese genius. The meeting...the essence of Buddha's teaching and the essence of Lao Tzu's teaching merged into one stream so deeply that no separation is possible now. Out of that meeting Zen was born. Zen is neither Buddhist nor Taoist, and yet both.The future of humanity will go closer to the Zen approach - because the meeting of the East and West is possible only through something like Zen, which is earthly and yet unearthly. The miracle is that Zen is neither interested in the past, nor the future. Zen lives in the present. Its whole teaching is just to be rooted, centered in that which - "is"Zen is Zen. There is nothing comparable to it. It is unique - unique in the sense that is the most ordinary and yet the most extraordinary phenomenon that has ever happened to human consciousness. It is the most ordinary because it does not believe in knowledge, it does not believe in the mind. It is not a philosophy, not a religion either. It is the total acceptance of ordinary existence. It has not interest in any esoteric nonsense, no interest in metaphysics at all. It does not hanker for the other shore; this shore is more than enough. Its acceptance of this shore is so tremendous that through that very acceptance it transforms this shore - and this very shore becomes the other shore.This very body the Buddha. This very Earth the lotus paradise.- Osho |

My Interests |
|
| If you want to know the realm of Buddhahood, you must make your mind as clear as empty space; leave false thinking and all grasping far behind which causes your mind to be unobstructed wherever it may turn. The realm of Buddhahood is not some external world Where there is a formal “Buddha”: It’s the realm of the Wisdom of a self-awakened Sage.
