If you put your conditioned intellect to rest for a long time, suddenly it will be like the bottom falling out of a bucket -- then you will naturally be happy and at peace. - Yaunwu
A beautiful and wise quote from Zen Buddhism. As I have gotten older, I realize the limits of intellect and rationalization. With both, one can explain and justify anything, but get no closer to truth or wisdom. To see the world as it is means to be empty. It means the end of the rational mind as we know it.
