Good morning to all,
As we all know,
* Chan is taught without words.
* Chan is the direct experience of the reality.
* Chan is not two or Chan is one.
What kind of practice is Chan really? How do we describe it without words?
I have come to realize that it is a pure experience and a real time
experience. Chan is a direct connection to the "initiator" embedded in
every form at every moment. Instead of observing the form, we can
connect to the "initiator" of every form.
Since this experience is completely internal, personal and formless, it
just can not be described by words. For ease of communication, I called
it "pure spiritual practice".
While this "pure spiritual practice" is completely formless, internal
and personal, however it is reflected, described, labeled externally is
not IT. Some call it "Just This", or "As Is", or "Suchness"... In fact
we can call it anything we want, as long as we realize at the same time,
it is not what it is called.
Let us all Experience the Now.
