Its Still Complicated - By Sokuzan - Sunday March 4 2018 - http://sokukoji.org

Watch how the mind keeps making up stuff. The ego mind wants to sort it out based on belief. The constant chatter in our own minds is just the surface. It’s complicated. What’s being recommended here is to simplify. Sit down, hold still and watch the complications come and go. Don’t personalize them, and don’t depersonalize them. Don’t try to control your mind based on hope and fear. Direct perception is without the intermediary of passion, aggression and ignorance, which can’t live in the heat of bare attention. Wisdom mind is about opening to the activity of “It’s complicated.”
