To study the self is to forget the self. To forget the self is to be enlightened by all things. To be enlightened by all things is to be free from attachment to the body and mind of one's self and of others." We should understand that the Goddess resides in all women, sadly in most ...hidden.

Q. Could anyone locate the comment about Dogen Einstein or Asian descendent? Asked by V R - Sat Mar 8 12:53:45 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. Do you mean eihei dogen zenji? The founder of the Soto (T'sao Dong Ch'an) lineage of Buddhism in Japan? What comment? You're not very clear. Is THIS the comment? "Mind and body dropped off; dropped off mind and body! This state should be experienced by everyone; it is like piling fruit into a basket without a bottom, like pouring water into a bowl with a pierced hole; however much you may pile or pour you cannot fill it up. When this is realized the pail bottom is broken through. But while there is still a trace of conceptualism which makes you say 'I have this understanding' or 'I have that realization', you are still playing with unrealities."
