Zen enlightenment is basically the mind tripping over its own shoelaces and pretending it meant to do that. No fireworks, no certificate, just awareness realizing it’s been running the show while the ego was busy updating its LinkedIn.
For example, instead of "Naturally" or "Consequentially" as the unintended, but necessary and ultimately desired consequence, of seeking insight through concentration and 'right intention'.
Texts like the Lankavatara even describe a method (there are many), which while almost never immediate, is always effective.

Spectacular ✨️ so grateful for your writing ♥️
Why do you say "Accidentally"?
For example, instead of "Naturally" or "Consequentially" as the unintended, but necessary and ultimately desired consequence, of seeking insight through concentration and 'right intention'.

Satori is not a consequence of an effort / practice. It arises spontaneously, and hence the word accidentally.
Thank you for clarifying. It was just that I had not seen the word used like that in this context. Now I see that it makes sense here.
Woo! x
