When You're Already Home But Still Searching
A Zen master once asked his student: "What comes thus?" The student struggled for eight years before finally giving up and answering, "When anything is said about it, you miss the mark." This isn't a riddle - it's the fundamental paradox of human existence. We spend our lives searching for something we already possess, trying to become someone we already are. Right now, as you read these words, you're living what Zen calls "the treasury of the true dharma eye" - the most precious treasure imaginable. Yet most of us experience our lives as anything but treasured. We're stuck in traffic, worried about bills, replaying yesterday's argument, dreading tomorrow's meeting. The gap between what we think our life should be and what it actually is feels vast. But what if there was never any gap to begin with? What if the very act of searching creates the distance we're trying to close? Your life itself is the koan - the fundamental question that must be resolved. Each of us, regardless of differences, has equal intrinsic value - the value of emptiness. To "come thus" means to be thus, as this - completely, without reservation. When there's even the tiniest discrepancy between who you are and who you are, it's off.
