Perhaps it's a feeling that if St. John could borrow the term <I>The Logos</I> from Philo, I can borrow Zen from the Buddhists.<BR/>Zen is a type of practice which eschews too much theorising and concentrates instead on developing the experience of spirituality. This is exactly what I was trying to drive at. <BR/><BR/>If I was a Catholic I'd be a Jesuit. If I was a Buddhist I would be Zen. I'm never going to be either, so I'll borrow the term in the meantime because I can't think of a better one.Kelvin Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682322819567886400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170814845771372625.post-59224050550150090032008-06-16T22:53:00.000+12:002008-06-16T22:53:00.000+12:00Why Zen?
