Gaining idea usually limits
our meaning of practice. Our practice has limitless
meaning in it. So that is why Zen has eternal life in it. And why Zen
helps us in its true sense is because it will cut off the root of the problems
we have. If you know how to practice zazen, you will know how to cut off your
root of suffering-- root of trouble. That is why our practice is valuable.
