4 thought provoking questions

* Are you breathing?
* Are you meditating to calm your mind and cleanse it of negativity?
* To what extent are your thoughts fear-based or judgmental and making you suffer?
* What would your life be like if you stopped judging everything/everyone and accepted everything the way it is, yourself included?

I like them...and I think I need time to think about them.

OK Joe, I have a response.

"What would your life be like if you stopped judging everything/everyone and accepted everything the way it is, yourself included?"

Static Answer: It would be serene.

Real Answer: It would be serene most of the time, interrupted occasionally with gut-busting hilarity, tear-jerking compassion, genuine love, deep hatred, and a basic fear of frailty and death.

I see the Zen in your response Aaron, minus the deep hatred and fear of frailty and death ;-). Nice though my friend, thank you for your contributions and more important sharing your response!

Hatred and fear are pure zen. Attachment to hatred and fear are not.
