Foyan explains why Buddhists churches aren't his thing

https://www.amazon.com/Instant-Zen-Waking-Up-Present/dp/1556431937/

I am exhorting you in utter seriousness; I am not lying, I am not making up rationalizations to trap people, I will not Allow people to oppress the free. I have no such reasons. If you recognize this, that is up to you. If you say you also see this way, that is up to you. If you say that everything is all right according to your perception, that is up to you. If you say your mind is still uneasy, that is up to you. You can only attain realization if you don’t deceive yourself.

(Welcome link) (ewk^who?) note:  r/Zen is getting content brigaded hard by people who can't do what Foyan did... honestly answer questions. These content brigaders are from churches where the priests can't honestly answer questions... deceiving others and deceiving themselves... how can they even claim to be Buddhist?
