In previous lecture, I compared zazen practice
and usual everyday activity. In usual activity, as you know, our effort is
directed to outside, and our activity is concentrated on some particular
things. This activity of particularize something creates many things. But this
kind of creativity at the same time creates some fear. This creativity
will result in some feeling-- whether it is good or bad. ---------------------------------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture 67-12-05-A as found on shunryusuzuki.com.
