Who would then deny that when I am sipping tea in my tearoom I am swallowing the whole universe with it and that this very moment of my lifting the bowl to my lips is eternity itself transcending time and space?
Zen has no business with ideas.

The intuitive recognition of the instant, thus reality… is the highest act of wisdom.
