Prajna-reflections



THRESHOLD AND ADVICE:- Threshold occurred around Xmas and New Year 2021/22. From that point on the autonomy of zandtao's path changed his direction. It coincided with the sad loss of bell hooks in which this dedication (from a journal) zandtao considers an appropriate tribute. His book addressed the love-wisdom balance his autonomy recognised and bell's book on love (the 2nd part of Real Love) addressed embodiment.

zandtao recognises the extreme importance of Buddhadasa Buddhism in developing his practice. But as the Diamond Sutra warning to autonomy says, the autonomy now guides using practice that needs to be continued. Crossing the threshold meant love and embodiment whereas zandtaomed was concerned with developing practice towards the threshold as all good practice does. Encouraging seekers without a practice into embodiment might not be appropriate, so continued for the seekers and advice in concerned the development of his autonomy.

A reader might feel there are anomalies. First consideration of meditation retreats and Goenka occurred here in but developed in with Willoughby et al. Discussions of ZCAP, a Christian Practice, is part of no-religion and is not the focus of a seeker looking to zandtaomed to develop a practice.

Whilst zandtao seriously questions embodiment and bypassing for seekers who have transcended, he questions whether that ought to be a dilemma for those whose priority is practice - the seeker's embodiment develops at its own pace without questioning. Warning!! Remember the Diamond sutra Warning!!.

With advice zandtao is concerned with consideration of vision. His view remains the same - a seeker's priority is the development of practice; embodiment has none of the spiritual imperative that comes with transcendence.
