lied (iv)

Naturally, to look for the beautiful... 

has a totally different impact. 

When you are searching for truth, you are more male. When you are searching for beauty, you are more female. When you are searching for truth, you are more concerned with reason. When you are searching for beauty... 

you have to be more and more concerned with intuition. 

-

Zen is feminine. 

Poetry is feminine. 

Philosophy is very male, very aggressive. 

It is a male mind.

Zen is passive. 

-

That is why in Zen, sitting... 

became one of the most important... 

meditations.
