RE: Liberating Insight
My teacher (a zen monk) had a slightly different way of putting it. He said the purpose of meditation was—then he rang a singing bowl and let that finish the thought for him.
I'm surprised he didn't slap me instead. Those zennies are unpredictable dudes.
@dbooster my Soen teacher would go Spock face on me and the force of that look would set me back like I was hit on the head with his sandal...hahaha
All communications on a subliminal level would stop...there would be nothing, sometimes the force of that ability to just stop the play of the mind and emotions took my breath away...I wanted to learn how to do that...hahah
Now there's a superpower!
