The mundane is the sublime. Jesus says, "Knock and it shall be opened unto you." That is, give your undistracted attention to whatever presents itself, and its stubborn opaqueness will open unto you, revealing glorious transparency. One Zen practitioner described this experience as feeling "free as a fish in an ocean of cool, clear water after being stuck in a tank of glue."
