Hi Mayka, And, so what if your mind gets confused? You may not be able to satisfactorily explain the difference between illusion and reality - but then neither can anyone else. However, I believe that, in living your life, you have no problem telling the difference. > The other day as soon I sent the posting to the web I wondered: Wouldn't be another illusion to make distinctions between illusions and reality? >From the very beginning, no illusion, no reality: "In the Bible it is said that "In the Beginning, there was the Word," but in the deepest realm of Zen meditation there is no single word." --Nanrei Kobori-Rohi (1918-1992) > Today I see you in a new light.

Perhaps, Mayka, you are developing a Zen mind. I had wrongly judged you as having the mind of an expert -with very, very few possiblities in it. ;-) --ED
