As my thoughts trail on this zen issue-specifically what concerns me is the idea of

"Zen" babies-and the effects of zen adults on children, any religion can be repressive on children. Having said this, does not mean that the zen mentality is wrong-just that it lacks a time line within our Westerners journey and specifically with children.

In orgonomy-as you work through your own feelings and work them through and out of the body-you will arrive at a "zen point" where people don't effect you the same way and you do not hold on to and absorb the anger-but it passes through you. Which will bring you to a Buddhist mentality-and a higher understanding-

For me, I know it is not something that occurs overnight and it may take years of discipline- not unlike Uma Thurman's character in Kill Bill! But I had many layers to work through and depending on the level of early damage and the earlier it occurs the less hope for a prognosis-although improvement can be made.

I think that my article on the yamas (spiritual laws of Hinduism) Satya (truth) and Ahimsa (non-violence) and temperance (timing) is appropriate here- you can look it up on my blog or I can send it to you- but it basically states that we are living in the dark age and that Westerners in terms of Yoga are skipping Satya and trying to attain Ahimsa-basically afraid of Satya-

Which appears in the age of Darkness-Kali Yuga- whenever Satya comes forward or starts to reveal her face, yoga Maya (Illusion) jumps in front of her-and is invited with a personal invitation by the individual who beckons her.

So, I implore people to pull the veil of yoga Maya down and invest in the necessary and scary journey of Satya-

This is what that elephant painting means in my office-Ganesha (force to push through barriers with physical strength) pushes through yoga Maya (illusion)

to arrive at Satya which is written in sanskrit in the Sun-

the Buddhist Pagoda behind Ganesha-represents-moving away from ancient religious structures that house mechanical, Arhimanic laws-to journey towards Satya-the goal.

Ganesha-is crowned as a king and is balancing the earth on his head....pushing the earth towards the new age.
