American Zen Buddhist Rock Podcast L2-15

PODCAST 35 of the
American Zen Buddhist Rock Podcast
Hosted by The Hippy Coyote of
American Zen

Episode 15 of American Zen's
LEVEL 2 = CHRIST KILLER cd.

Coyote talks about his newfound freedoms have led him to perceive several cages he is living in.

"You go to pat yourself on the back and realize you're wearing another collor," sighs Coyote.

Coyote shares his NEW MEANING OF ENLIGHTENMENT. After studying one of his Chan Buddhism books, Coyote comes up with an image of a monk in a doorway who enlightens the household like the morning sunrise light beams that shine in through the window to illuminate the dust in the air. "Look for that monk. Enlightenment: the monk in the doorway is like the sunrise light in the window."

"Fixing means you're unhappy with it the way it is. Improving means you're happy with it but you want to make it better. I want a life of improvement. I'm just making things better that are already good," laughs Coyote. " Coyote talks himself into accepting his reality and decorating his cages.

"Jimi Hendrix was complaining...about his wearing feathers..." Coyote compares Jimi to a peacock that we should appreciate rather than ridicule.
