Absolute Freedom

Our belief or that trust is not usual trust or usual belief in that which is not true, that which is not real. So when, you know, you are able to sit without being attached to any image or any sound, with open mind, that is true practice. And that you can do that means you have already absolute freedom from everything.          --------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki  lecture - 69-03-30 - as found on shunryusuzuki.com. Edited by DC  - Going through Suzuki lectures and posting anything that can stand on its own. Not looking for zingers or "the best of." I find that following these excerpts daily provides another way to experience Suzuki's teaching.
