People are full of bullshit and we look for the answers to big questions..

From TV, from the internet, from other people in general. Nobody has the answers these are just lost people like ourselves who have no idea and are just trying to theorise the way things work or how they are supposed to be.

Answering with a bit more depth, or shallowness, who knows?

The 13th century zen master Dogen wrote in his [i]Genjokoan[/i]:-

[i]Therefore, if there are fish that would swim or birds that would fly only after investigating the entire ocean or sky, they would find neither path nor place. When we make this very place our own, our practice becomes the actualization of reality[/i]

As I see it, we must all seek our own time, place and path. Dogen's words suggest, at least to me, the need for Trust/Faith. Which is in short supply these days.
