In other words, the more you conceptualize and structure, the further you are from it, you know?

Thus, you wrote a massive wall of text. Ha. Matrixed!

You are right that the idea in the mind is very definite and clear, but trying to put it in words created (to my dismay) a wall of text that is off putting.

Years ago I practiced the Advaita, the discipline of becoming aware of the true self. I was doing the excercise of distinguishing the true self (the observer) from the ego (the internal, judgemental voice one oftens confounds with the self). I had to try to silence the voice of the ego. For a moment when I achieved that silence, 10 voices came back at the same time. It was scary. Had the first realization that one is not that voice, and that this voice is independent of one.

Mmm indeed.. also of course by engaging with you about it, I am also totally matrixed :D


Zen practice is not clarifying conceptual distinctions, but throwing away one’s preconceived views and notions and the sacred texts and all the rest, and piercing through the layers of coverings over the spring of self behind them. All the holy ones have turned within and sought in the self, and by this went beyond all doubt. To turn within means all the 24 hours and in every situation, to pierce one by one through the layers covering the self, deeper and deeper, to a place that cannot be described.

Sorry, I just felt compelled to share my idea. Perhaps too convoluted. Zen is very similar in the end to the Advaita. Disolution of the self in the whole.
