Zen can become something like a terrible addiction, almost like a drug. There are more than likely chemicals reacting in your brain right now about it, feeding this addiction. We're mostly hastening towards the dharma, but not leaping directly into the void. This emptiness, true emptiness, is beyond what you are attempting to grasp, or even let go. There's nothing to do in Zen, and there's nothing to learn. Recognize your addiction to Zen, and let it fall. And don't think that you'll somehow get to an even deeper level of 'Zen' by doing this, as that is just your addiction yet again. That is all.
