SydneyJim<p>Who teaches us to be ashamed of our <a href="https://body.social/tags/nakedness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nakedness</span></a>? Who whispers that our <a href="https://body.social/tags/bodies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bodies</span></a>, as they are, need to be hidden, veiled, or adorned? It is not <a href="https://body.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> that tells us to cover ourselves or to feel embarrassed when bare.

SydneyJim<p>In the practice of <a href="https://body.social/tags/ZenBuddhism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ZenBuddhism</span></a>, shame & embarrassment are recognised for what they are - constructs, mere passing thoughts that cling to the <a href="https://body.social/tags/mind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mind</span></a> like mist, only to dissolve under the sun’s light. They have no inherent substance, no enduring <a href="https://body.social/tags/reality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>reality</span></a>.

SydneyJim<p>It is a profound act of truthfulness — returning to the fundamental simplicity of <a href="https://body.social/tags/existence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>existence</span></a>, where realisation arises without striving or effort. In this way, <a href="https://body.social/tags/HadakaShizenyoku" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HadakaShizenyoku</span></a> transcends conceptual practices like koan, gongan, & pith methods by engaging the whole being in an unmediated, <a href="https://body.social/tags/experiential" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>experiential</span></a> <a href="https://body.social/tags/truth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>truth</span></a>. It is not a matter of solving a riddle or receiving an instruction; it is the living <a href="https://body.social/tags/reality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>reality</span></a> of nonduality, where <a href="https://body.social/tags/nakedness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nakedness</span></a> itself becomes a gateway to <a href="https://body.social/tags/awakening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>awakening</span></a>. (22/22)</p>
SydneyJim<p>This concealment is a profound hindrance to <a href="https://body.social/tags/realisation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>realisation</span></a>. To truly <a href="https://body.social/tags/experience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>experience</span></a> <a href="https://body.social/tags/awakening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>awakening</span></a>, one must shed not only <a href="https://body.social/tags/mental" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mental</span></a> constructs but physical coverings — embracing the <a href="https://body.social/tags/vulnerability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vulnerability</span></a> & <a href="https://body.social/tags/authenticity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>authenticity</span></a> of being <a href="https://body.social/tags/Naked" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Naked</span></a> in <a href="https://body.social/tags/Nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nature</span></a>. Clothing perpetuates dualistic thinking, dividing ‘self’ from ‘world’ & fostering attachment to <a href="https://body.social/tags/social" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>social</span></a> identities. (18/22)</p>
SydneyJim<p>Humans, however, obscure their <a href="https://body.social/tags/Nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nature</span></a> behind man-made clothing — a symbolic barrier between themselves & the world around them. Clothing is not just a physical covering but a conceptual one, reinforcing notions of separation, status, identity, & propriety. It is a veneer that blemishes <a href="https://body.social/tags/awakening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>awakening</span></a>, reinforcing the illusion of duality & maintaining a false sense of control over the <a href="https://body.social/tags/natural" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>natural</span></a> state of being. (16/22)</p>
SydneyJim<p>A racist person has a very small <a href="https://body.social/tags/mind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mind</span></a> with limited experience in life. A racist person lacks compassion, wisdom, & non-discrimination. <a href="https://body.social/tags/Buddhism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Buddhism</span></a> encourages seeing beyond superficial differences & recognising the <a href="https://body.social/tags/interconnectedness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>interconnectedness</span></a> of all beings. True <a href="https://body.social/tags/awakening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>awakening</span></a> means letting go of all dualistic thinking, including racial distinctions.

SydneyJim<p>The <a href="https://body.social/tags/Buddha" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Buddha</span></a> taught that all beings are <a href="https://body.social/tags/equal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>equal</span></a> in their potential for <a href="https://body.social/tags/awakening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>awakening</span></a> (悟り, satori) & that divisions based on race, caste, or status are illusions created by ignorance (無明, mumyō). The <a href="https://body.social/tags/Buddha" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Buddha</span></a> rejected the caste system, stating that people of all backgrounds experience birth, aging, sickness, & death the same way. (1/2)</p>
SydneyJim<p>The <a href="https://body.social/tags/Buddha" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Buddha</span></a> taught that letting go of greed leads to <a href="https://body.social/tags/liberation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>liberation</span></a>. Generosity (布施, fuse), contentment (知足, chisoku), & wisdom (智慧, chie) counteract greed, leading to peace & <a href="https://body.social/tags/awakening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>awakening</span></a> (悟り, satori).

SydneyJim<p>By embracing suffering in this way, one cultivates <a href="https://body.social/tags/equanimity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>equanimity</span></a> & <a href="https://body.social/tags/clarity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>clarity</span></a>. There is no longer a need to struggle against pain or seek pleasure obsessively. Instead, life is lived with openness, moment by moment, accepting all <a href="https://body.social/tags/experiences" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>experiences</span></a> — joyful & painful — without grasping or pushing away.

SydneyJim<p>Unlike many <a href="https://body.social/tags/ZenBuddhist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ZenBuddhist</span></a> masters of his time, <a href="https://body.social/tags/KazanS%C5%8Dki" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KazanSōki</span></a> had little interest in monastic life or formal teachings. He viewed <a href="https://body.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> as his true teacher, learning from the mountains, rivers, & wind rather than from human discourse. His dedication to solitude reflected his belief that <a href="https://body.social/tags/enlightenment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>enlightenment</span></a> came not from intellectual debate but from stripping away all illusions, including <a href="https://body.social/tags/societal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>societal</span></a> constructs.
