'.......Zen Masters teach that to realize the emptiness and interconnectedness of all things, not just with the mind but with one's whole being, is to achieve enlightenment......................'
'In Zen, enlightenment, or profound inner peace, is not understood as something that we have to work hard to attain. Rather, it is seen as the true character of the awakened mind that is already fully present in each of us.'
'Zen' Selections by Miriam Levering. Duncan Baird Publishers, London. 2000
