The power of Zen

"If you have nothing to 'create' maybe you are creating yourself."

Zen is an 'art of living', very inaccessible to European people. They can find themselves on a shaking ground and reject that because they can't find a logical explanation for things they heard. But why? European people can thing exclusively through the science postulates typical for the West. Oriental way of thinking has no boundaries that create ratio and logical principles in our mind. You can achieve Zen with intellect and rationalism; Zen requires experience!

Why is Zen so special?
For West people natural sciences are the measure and give us the method for explaining all our nature and un-nature. All unique that each person possesses they ignore. Particularity and spirituality (spirituality - not religion!) of individuals is forgotten.
That's where we are turning ourselves to Zen.
Zen is giving us an advice: when we feel something with our heart we shouldn't hide that away,
 we should show that.
To all perfectly programming, superior and egoistical West people Zen can show how creative and free human being they really are.
