zen isn't a disconnect, it's a heart-felt equanimity for the balance of circumstance. i see zen as reciprocal to the west's linear rationality. instead of setting out to connect all the dots, the intent of zen is seeing the dots, letting them connect and then seeing how oneself connects to them.

do you meditate?
