Just become the gap

Just become the gap Poem: In the beginning, meditation is just a gap between your thoughts. After many years of practice you just become the gap and lose all the thoughts. Your identity can just be contemplation. You can still play tennis like an entity. In the same way your snacks can just become your meals. You can use just a spoon as your plates and bowls, that can be your portion control. Your career goal can just be enlightenment. You can get antsy legs that prefer sitting (in lotus posture that is) over lying. The structure of the brain can be re-arranged by just doing Ch’an. A Poem by David Smith January 22, 2020

Zen (ch'an in Chinese) is the Japanese word for Sanskrit dhyāna, which is usually translated in English by such terms as "meditation," "contemplation," "tranquillisation," "concentration of mind," etc.
