At the Zendog this morning we talked about how metaphors in Zen are always pointing to practice.
The metaphor: The pond becomes clear with the muck is left to settle.
The practice: Our minds become clear with zazen. When we sit we let go of all the muck. Everything we think important enough to cling to, creating suffering, we learn to let go of. Creating a clear mind of awareness.
