Re: [Zen] Why bother with Zazen? Better Orgyhouse

[ED]

siska,

There is no escaping being fooled in life, whether it be by life itself,
by your partner, by oneself, by one's teacher, by the discursive mind,
or by a real or imagined kensho-satori. One's least foolish choice might
be to relish every fooled and foolish moment in each and every moment.
