No place to stand

"I do not actually give you an home base to come back to, as "keep come back to the breath". There is a reason: when you finally give up the notion that you are going to have a place to stand that's when you are doing 3D zen as opposed to a flat zen put down from a fixed prospective: "I'm over here, sitting on the river bank, watching the river". If that works right at some point you became the river without being caught by the river, but if this doesn't work right you can expend 20 or 30 years on the bank of that river and never be liberated. So I do not want you to have a center, I want the center to have you, a completely different experience."
