I feel like the pressure on me that’s been there my entire life to fulfill myself by searching for things outside has been lifted, I see now, I am fundamentally whole. I have nothing to gain, nothing to experience, nowhere to be, I just need to abide within the unborn, unbirthing mind and stop discriminating quite so much.
Not even Theravada Buddhism when I practiced it helped like this, being told I shouldn’t grasp isn’t quite so helpful as being told I am whole, complete and don’t need to grasp at things outside myself to feel pleasure.
Man, reading words about awakening and ending suffering is one thing but this intuitive experience of Zen is another.
