he Zennist
- Dark Zen - The Teachings of Mystical Zen Buddhism The goal of
Zen Buddhism is directed towards achieving mystical union with
Buddha Mind in which the Zennist actually awakens to ones
whereabouts within their own being. The Zennist perceive, in a
very real sense, what the Buddha actually intuited when he became
enlightened some twenty five hundred years ago. This intuitive
perception, usually called by its Japanese name, 'satori', is an

thought and sensory experience. At once, the Zennist recognizes
that from the very beginning they were never really separated from
Buddha Mind...
