"The purpose of our practice is to cut off the karmic spinning mind."--Shunryu Suzuki
I believe it was Pascal who said that the imagination is the madwoman in the house. In zazen, we cut off the ego--the imaginary eternal self--and discover our true transitory self. We do not live in the past and we do not live in the future. We settled ourselves on each moment, moment-by-moment.
This is the true way of living!
