In detachment lies the wisdom of uncertainty... in the wisdom of uncertainty lies the freedom from our past, from the known, which is the prison of past conditioning. And in our willingness to step into the unknown, the field of all possibilities, we surrender ourselves to the creative mind that orchestrates the dance of the universe.

Deepak Chopra

The union of male and female are symbolic for the union of method or compassion and wisdom, or more specific in tantra, the union of bliss and emptiness.

"The more we train to see ourselves as such a meditational deity,
the less bound we will feel by life's ordinary disappointments and frustrations.
This divine self-visualisation empowers us to take control of our life
and create for ourselves a pure environment
in which our deepest nature can be expressed."
Lama Yeshe

A Drop of Water

However deep your
Knowledge of the scriptures,
It is no more than a strand of hair
In the vastness of space;
However important appears
Your worldly experience,
It is but a drop of water in a deep ravine.

ZEN AGAIN

Zen-A state of being where one is flowing in harmony with the forces of nature. When we experience this place we feel a sense of Oneness. Unity with the divine. We can all recall times, perhaps moments when our life flowed perfectly. Call it perfection, bliss, joy, love, or a connection with God, this state of ” being” is very healing and perhaps the common state that all humans strive for.

Zen is to achieve total enlightenment through the discovery of one's basic nature. Oneness with nature is often referred to as “unity with the divine” and is a place of healing.

Consider

Consider the trees which allow the birds to perch and fly away
without either inviting them to stay or desiring them never to depart.

If your heart can be like this, you will be near to the way.
