Alright, next section waking up to life. Next in as much detail as possible, I will give an analytical description of the actual internal experience when doing zozen. Alright, so the man got his degree in philosophy Long, long ago, Western philosophy. So he knows quite a lot. And he does have some diagrams as well, which I'm not even going to attempt to describe, I don't want us to get lost in this. But we do have another kind of metaphor, if you will, that can help instead of trying to describe these diagrams, so I'm going to as best I can switch over to that metaphor. And actually maybe just talk about right now before I dive into to his writing here about it. Imagine if you will, that you are on a one road highway, one lane highway. Which yami here describes it as just a horizontal line going from z to z prime. But I'm going to stop right there until I get into all the letters that he uses. But this this image is going to work. So what we're doing in za Zen is we're staying on that highway. On this highway, there are exits. Those exits are thoughts, feelings, emotions. So what ends up invariably happening as we get on this highway. Next thing, you know, we're taking an exit, we're getting off on one of those exit ramps, and we get on a secondary road. We're on that secondary road for a while lost in thought. And next thing you know we're in a small town, we might even stop off at a diner and have lunch. And it goes on and on and on and on like that. The beautiful thing about this is as soon as you notice through your practice, as soon as you notice that you're not diner, get right back on the highway, there's no going back onto the road secondary road, we don't have to do that. Practice is noticing we're lost in thought, and going right back on that highway. All right, so let's use that image. That analogy. First of all, we're on the highway. This highway represents truly maintaining dissolves and posture. When we were doing zozen This highway should be the reality of our lives right now. So by all means, we must keep to it. But human beings sitting are not like rocks that have been set down. We are not fixed. And so it happens that we tend to move away from this line, we move away from this highway, either thoughts come up or we doze off. For example. Thought A comes into our mind and we move off of the highway. If we take this thought as a basis this. In other words, if we take this thought this exit ramp as a basis and continue with those thoughts, going on the secondary road, getting into town going to that diner, we are thinking if something about our work comes to mind, for instance, and we continue with thoughts about the arrangements and management of the work, we are clearly doing nothing but thinking about our work. Then we let go over thoughts and wake up to the partial Zen with our flesh and bones. We return to the reality of life and return to the highway.
