Had to share, chanced upon this from a buddy's site, and Zen has been something that has been filling my headspace for a while. No us and thems, no then and next. Overheard once, and it made a lot of sense. "We have to question the motives of those who speak and reason in polarities", and this short sentence says quite a lot.

Original nature has no opposites. Speech and words are not necessary. Without thinking, all things are exactly as they are. Truth is just like this.
