I can throw a great party, but I don't know how to go to one. I can throw a party because when you throw a party you just work all the time. But I could never go to a party because I wouldn't know what to do ... I'd immediately find the kitchen and start to serve food.

People who practice Zen correctly are not spaced-out or unrealistic. They are balanced and grounded.
Frederick Lenz

We can't say what enlightenment is, we can't say what it isn't, because these are words and words have nothing to do with reality.
Frederick Lenz
Image
To assume that wealth or sexuality or the usage of power, any of these things are not void in nature, gives them a reality they don't actually have.
