Re: Zen and the five senses
Hmm deep... and very cool topic! Thank you Ann!
By the way "Blue goes" to my daughter... what ever is blue and in her view... ie - blue may be sky so Blue goes - Swooosh (wind) or twinkle twinkle or if there is a blue bird then tweet tweet :D This is something i do love... So when perplexed my new thing to say... is hmm what does blue go?" :).
Okay so as for the numbers are colours or the mmm this smells like "B" or tastes like happy - I cant say if I do or not :(
Anywho... during Zazen i find my ears are EXTRA sensitive to light noise and my entire body reacts to the noise, such as a click of the electric base board heater kicking in is like a bomb drop and my entire being seems to be tuned into my ears for that moment, but i may never ever hear the news on the tv in the back ground. I try not to focus on ears/eyes/noes/or toes but i find they (sense) all get heightened and lessened through out sitting as thoughts pass through. Does that make sense?
