ZEN DESTROYS BELIEF: Don’t Worship God — Experience It.

Zen does not argue about God.

Zen does not defend God.

Zen does not deny God.

Zen destroys the idea of God.

Because the moment God becomes a belief, it becomes psychological comfort.

The moment God becomes scripture, it becomes borrowed knowledge.

The moment God becomes imagination, it becomes ego’s projection.

Zen is ruthless.

Rooted in the radical silence of Bodhidharma and flowing from the awakening of Gautama Buddha, Zen refuses second-hand truth.

If God exists — find it directly.

Not through priests.

Not through rituals.

Not through inherited fear.

Direct experience.

Direct seeing.

Direct awareness.

Zen is not atheism.

Zen is not theism.

Zen is a sword.

It cuts belief.

It cuts doubt.

It cuts imagination.

And what remains?

Silence.

Presence.

Suchness.

That which cannot be named — some call it God.

Zen calls it this.

This breath.

This moment.

This awareness.

No middleman.

No promise of heaven.

No spiritual marketplace.

Only truth — naked.

At its simplest, intuitive thinking is the ability to feel your way to an answer rather than reason your way to it. It's when you follow a hunch, sense the energy in a situation, or hear that quiet "yes" or "no" inside you before the evidence shows up.

Unlike analytical thinking, intuition is fast, instinctual, and often nonlinear. It's a deeper, more fluid way of processing the world around and within you.

Recently, life has been amazing. Everyday, for the last month or so, has been a great day. No exaggeration or fabrication, just full days that are full of things/experiences/people that have filled me with joy. To be in a state of fullness but yet light as a feather fills me with gratitude and appreciation for all of the life that I have lived up to this point. All the days of not knowing what I’m going to do next, the moments of unease because the weight of the situation is paralyzing, the nights of prayer for better days… led me to today, this moment of reflection where I can look back and thank God for the journey. The view from where I am right now is pretty spectacular. The best part about it is, even though everything I can see right now is beautiful, there is more. I’m just now getting started in the climb and I’ve also only just began to see how beautiful the journey is. I’m excited to see how far I can go and how high I can climb. I hope that this journey continues to be a success and that I can continue to be a better version of myself every single day. Thank you God for this opportunity. I will do my best.

“All human life has its seasons, and there is no inner chaos that lasts indefinitely. Winter doesn’t last forever. There are also summer and spring, and although sometimes, when the branches are still dark and the earth cracks with the ice, one comes to think that they will never arrive, that spring and that summer come, they always arrive.”

Truman Capote
