Suresh,
It's a good point!
But, just to ADD: the "nature" we dissolve is an illusory one -- not a nature
at all -- which had been interposed, unfortunately, on top of our real nature.
We thus remove some old paint.
Dissolve the outer coating, and the sweet-sour true nature is all there is.
Sweet-sour because Neutral. Better, Empty. Wonderful.
Able to be either sweet or sour exactly in accord with causes and conditions.
With no interference from an outer layer of control and an outer layer of false
identity. Those layers have been shed, and dropped, if practice has been
thorough, ...and our teacher has confirmed this.
Zen is a transmission from Heart to Heart. Not a solo operation.
