JM,
I knew I was special! Now I can wear my underpants over my trousers
and my ZB t-shirt (Zen Boy) and not care about the strange looks
anymore. "Zen Boy!! To infinity and be.. here now!"

BTW, Mike. We, meaning you and I and ED all have so called
"Supernatural power". These are just power we were born with,
Nothing super about them.
FYI. there was a professor from Princeton said on Larry King that
they are researching into supernatural power. And she said, that one
hundred years from now. These powers will be so common, and would not
be considered supernatural power anymore.
Many of my fellow practitioners have such abilities. But so what? We
all can, if we practice. :-)

*Warning warning!* ...we MUST get more people to meditate to quiet
the karmic events arriving soon.
What kind of shape would these events take? The Mayan 2012 prophecy?
The sky falls? A major earthquake/tsunami (oops, they missed that
one)? American Idol winner has talent? Sarah Palin wins the US
presidency? ED 'gets it'?...
Does the practice of Chan endow you with supernatural powers? Btw,
this question is not as facetious as I know it looks.

Excellent, Bill.. Now here is my preliminary plan..
We will launch Adword in April with keywords such as depression,
stress, insomnia, etc. to get people to learn meditation. At the
same time, we will be starting a movement on Facebook titled,
"Meditate First" = "whether you are Chrisitan, Buddhist, Muslin, Jew,
rich or poor, before you act, talk, think, Meditate First." Sort of...
Both of these will aggregate witnesses in health and spirituality,
just from opposite ends. Therefore, there will be one web area, be
it tumblr, or facebook page, or part of meditatefirst.org, where
witnesses are posted.
Both chan-meditation.org(from what are the benefits) and
meditatefirst.org (to connect deeper to Christ) will link to this place.
The idea is not to compare zen/Chan with Christianity, or teach
Christians about zen/Chan, but get Christians to Meditate First.
They will automatically deepen their faith or read Bible
differently. Therefore, in these articles, there will be no need to
mention Zen or Chan, just how to meditate to be closer to God.
Please let me know your thoughts. If you can think of an outline, I
can setup anything in one week -- joomla 1.5 or just Tumblr. Then
you can enter the content. I would not have time to read anything.
I have a lot to do.
* Our Family Oneness program is successful into libraries.
* Corporate Oneness programs is piloted into corporations.
* Personal oneness program to hit the US through Adword.
* A 200 people Chan Center is in the process being located.
* 10 classes a week to support.
Let us do something. Everyone is welcome.
BTW, Not sure I mentioned this before, my Teacher and another well
known Teacher both mentioned about one month ago, we MUST get more
people to meditate to quiet the karmic events arriving soon.
No wonder I have sensing urgency for awhile. Just do what we can.
Together.
Many Thanks. A bow to ALL.
JM

JMJM,
I would be interested in participating in this. I was brought up as
a Christian and have gone through a lot of Bible study. I agree
wholeheartedly with your premise.
If you haven't already read it, I'd suggest you find a copy of a
small book called THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ZEN. It's theme is the
same as the one you've described.
...Bill!
