passion Wrote:Zen one of the many tradition of the Mahayana branch of Buddhism. So Zen is based on Mahayana Canon, but they mainly only focus on the "Heart Sutra" or the Prajnaparamita Sutra which is about emptiness, nothing is permanent, nothing exist independently of everything else, Everything is interconnected, nothing is really born or dies, increases or decreases. I think they believe if someone is enlightened to that, they realize there is no negative or positive karma or something.
Hmmm OK funnily enough that makes sense to me, then truly Zen finds YOU not you Zen. I would put another truism in there ..."everything has a price ...the question is ...are you prepared to pay the price?"
"The Universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements: energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest." G'Kar-B5
