Question
Hello Master. You sometimes mention normality. Do you think normality exists? As I see it, normality is my middle ground. But as my exploration progresses, the middle shifts, and so does normality. Just as a trained athlete finds it normal to ride 50 kilometers to go shopping. What do you think? Respectful thanks for your answer. Best wishes. Christophe.

Master Kosen’s answer
As you say, normality is the Middle Way. So in these times, normality often becomes extreme.
Master Deshimaru wanted us to understand that awakening, enlightenment, was not a special condition, but simply the clear, silent mind without illusions,
the original condition of universal mind.
