If we continue to be upright, even in circumstances where pain and anxiety are present, eventually the separation between self and other, mind and object, is revealed as insubstantial and ungraspable. When we contemplate this suchness of mind and objects, all our obsessions drop away. We are freed of all self-clinging dispositions. Then, as Dogen says, “the gate of liberation is open.” Mind is not enlightenment. Objects are not enlightenment. Enlightenment appears in the suchness of mind and objects. Self is not enlightenment. Other is not enlightenment. Enlightenment appears in the suchness of self and other.
