      Ordinary is fine except in romantic relationships. No woman wants an ordinary man. Any man who wants a family better make sure he's at the top.

    Hi, I have a genuine question. Why do we think some thinks are bad? For example the concentration camps during Second World War. I don’t want to offend, but lately I had this question because I don’t think there is good or bad. Not because am going to make something bad it is just out of pure curiosity.

      Suffering isn't 'wrong' per se, suffering IS a natural part of life, animal and human, it can be life. But deliberately causing suffering to others IS wrong, there's a big difference between the suffering that happens naturally and the pain we could inflict on others to cause suffering.

      @jesus8453 I know everyone is different, but empathy plays a large part in knowing why causing suffering is wrong. Maybe improving your empathy, through communication or certain therapies could help, working on understanding others emotions in a different view. A good example of having respect for others and not wanting to cause harm is be following the golden rule; the principle of treating others as one would want to be treated by them, meaning that you should reciprocate to others how you would like them to treat you (not necessarily how they actually treat you). 🙏

      Or you could claim the Buddha himself founded Zen, when during a teaching, he sat in front of the Sangha and said nothing, only held up a flower. Only Mahakasyapa understood, smiling back at the Thatagatha.

      The ordinary life that zen Buddhism talks about is not a life that a proletarian is living. It is more related to ending suffering that everyone human being suffers regardless of his position in society. The words are same but have very different meanings I would suggest you to read Buddhist literature to get the hang of it.

      @@shivanshmishra752 and how does one appoint themselves the authority on what "Zen Buddhism talks about." I was under the impression that humans talk, not religions, and that many different Zen Buddhists have said and interpreted things many different ways. There are many ways up the mountain, the only one who wastes their time is he who runs around the base telling others they are on the wrong path, and so on. However, you seem to have some divine insight, so I'm all ears!

    This doesn't seem to be zen as I have been exposed to it. Seems more like vipisanna/insight meditation.
