All Zen is about releasing those attachments. Granted it's pretty hard, because if you succeed, you're enlightened. East, West, Religion, Practice… From a Zen perspective, you're just troubling your mind with binaries and conflict. | ||||||||

Ah and there is the dogma -- the otherness of the enlightened. The binaries still functionally exist. I see a lot of value in reflective practices. At the same time it seems unlikely to me that the point of existing is to not trouble your mind. | ||||||||
