JM,
I am not going to pick up any other books. My question is about the words by
your Chan Master.

Chris,
I confess I haven’t read any of ZEN AND THE BRAIN, and don’t intend to.
However, I encourage you and others to read and discuss it if you wish.

Welcome to the Zen Forum.
If you like what you have just seen, you must be (at least partially)
enlightened.
The Buddha might say: Seventeen trillion events transpired in the
course of that interchange.
I look forward to your joining in the conversations.

No, I am a layman. I do read Scientific American and Science News (a

very pretty PET scans of my brain doing memory load tests).

Oddly enough, you actually posted three replies to my initial post, none of
which confessed to have reading it however, so I ignored them.
I don't really have a shortage of articles and stuff to read - I have a

If anything, zen suggests to me Not Always So and to look at the given
situation, not relying on pre-formulated rules.
Carpe Diem fits the situation sometimes, definitely.

I'n familiar with that colloquialism as it's used a lot of here. The greatest

I haven't written here previously,
but there is a struggle going on here I hope to assist with,
maybe a little bit anyway.
My husband, Zeera (Zee), is almost 75, and he has spent most of his life
attempting to unite scientific truth and spiritual truth.
Science and spirituality are explorations.

that I have read.
Thank you Jennifer for taking the time. It gave me a warm feeling.
Indeed, as long as we can accept everything with open heart, our heart
is the collective hearts of everyone.
Please continue to post.
Jennifer,
Thank you for an interesting post. It is great to unite scientific truth and
spiritual truth, if at all possible. To make your post more impressive, it
would be fine, if you give more specific examples.

Hello Ed,
Thanks for the welcome :)
I am not familiar with the terms being used here, especially when you all are
discussing about buddha nature, zen, the Law and all that. The way I
understand it from this forum, there are no fix definitions for the terms
anyway and I somehow feel that is
, calmness and wisdom
need not
be instituted.
And there are no need for rules, multi-fold paths, vows, dogma, rituals or
attachment to the concept of karma.
