You will have to learn this new art of seeing things without judging , of seeing things without verbalising, of seeing things without evaluating.See the rose, see the bird on the wing, see the night full of stars, see the river passing by, see the traffic. Listen to the songs of the birds or a train passing by. Start learning a new art of just being reflective,not bring any thought in, not saying anything at all.
It will take time - old habits die hard - but one day it happens.If you persist , if you are patient enough, if you go on and on working at cleaning your inner world ,one day it happens.And the benediction of that day is immense. In fact , you are born anew.You start seeing the same world with new eyes because your eyes are so clear, your mirror reflects so deeply ,so totally,without distortion ,that the same trees that you have seen before thousands of times - are far more green than they have ever been . and their greenness is no ordinary greenness : it is luminous , it is radiating light.

ZAZEN
only by practising zazen,Satori is possibleZazen means simply siting ,doing nothing.You are simply relaxing into your own being,not doing anything at all.It is not a question of doing.It is simply a question of being.You go on relaxing into your being. A moment comes when you are in your utter purity ,in your utter simplicity, in your utter innocence .That is satori.
Zazen is a beautiful word .It simply means just sitting _ not even doing meditation. In fact , you cannot do meditation. Meditation is just sitting silently; it is not a question of doing. If you are doing somthing you are disturbing your meditation.

satori
To be ordinary ...and there isno competition at all.You can just be ordinary , nobody has any objection. People will simply feel sorry for you that you have dropped out of the competitive race.One competitor less..they will feel good but sorry for you.They will say "poor fellow!what happened to him?Why did he have to drop out?"The dropouts are not respectable people .
Buddha is a droupout.All real masters are dropouts.To be a sannyasin means to be a dropout. To dropout of the rat race is to drop in, because when you are in arace you cannot enter in.When you are no longer in the race there is no where to go.You start moving inwards because life is a flow : if there is no outer direction it takes the inner direction. If the goal is not there far away in the future, then you start moving into your nature in the present. That is satori.
