This is the correct Zen sickness: sick time, only sick. No choice, no checking, not dependent, only sick. Then sick is not sick. This is high-class practice and a high-class education.

Zen Master Seung Sahn in Only Don't Know by Zen Master Seung Sahn

 

To Practice This Thought:
The next time you are ill, accept it as high-class practice and high-class education.
