Can I choose to wake up?
Is the Buddhist awakening a choice? Yes.
- We are awake right now. In Zen, the enlightenment journey takes you to the same place.
- Awakening is the process through which you choose the awakened state.Â
- The choice is ritual suicide, killing the ego. It is not a simple as making a rational decision.Â
- You will awake when you are willing to awake.
