TWO READINGS: pUT THE salt in the water. Do you see it any longer? Taste it then pour it out. You know it was there.
The VOID can be like an ocean; you can walk the path to its edge, but you can not enter.
Kerouac has conveyed an interpretive mood w/ his monk characters, while he stayed up by Mt. Hozomeen watching for fires for a few months alone (Mid-west USA). "What is Zen?" says one monk. The Other: "Sweep out the kitchen."

No, I haven't heard of these authors. Though of course we may assuage the universal, we are provencial in our attempts. For instance, reading Jack Kerouac is me in a positivist's avenging, because it motivates fluidity of thought, stream of consciousness. And he was an in-between man of modernity to embrace, a young modern america, and a truth from an ancient time, w/ friends symbolic of his momentum--we all should get by w/ this help from our friends... again, it is not as easy as all that. I'll try to look those author's bios on-line, however. thanks...

Sometimes, I feel I can only speak to my own condition. (I saw what you conveyed--checked out N. maharaj on encyclopedia...) Walking to the bank from work the other afternoon, in the cold, perhaps an awakened few moments became available. I have exercised attachments enough that instead of being encumbered by intellectual projections e.g.where my studies could all so very importantly have taken me, I , rather enjoyed the climate & emotion of realization, a sensory moment--its solitarian ideal as if the mind was the absolute of energy wholly the product of the outward fact: observer observed observing I hope this isn't sounding like a rhetorical ploy to sound out Eastern principals. It seems entirely probable that the mind allows the observer to hone down to an imitative inner-attention, whence we have the advantage of the empirical & feeling.
