DROPS OF SILENCE

The sages who invented the Koans must have been aware of the fact that in order to enlighten the mind it is not necessary for it to arrive at finite answers but rather to bring it to stillness. When the mind is profoundly puzzled moments of stillness naturally occur in which enlightenment is becoming possible.
However, you do not need to read Koans to get there. It can also be achieved by simply questioning your own self, your actions, you reactions, movements etc. You just have to keep on asking yourself "Why?" until the source where the answers are arising from within your own thinking has become exhausted and the only answers you are receiving are drops of pure silence.

Of course, your Ego is still going to die its timely death but because you have released your fears death changes from a threat into a promise.
