How Koans (Absurd Questions) Free Us From Emotional Prisons

When life hands us an impossible situation we can turn to Koans to help us through. This practice was used for many years in Eastern traditions, for which there was no answer. It was meant to elevate and thereby kill the ego and intellect because only answers that tapped into the truth of the heart. The only right answer comes from the soul and if we can open up to hear then we will be brought up to a level where even a possible extreme situation is solved.

Very helpful & powerful, thank you again 💚😊 I do feel like my life is impossible, & when I try to ask my soul for a way out, it tells me to do my music. Writing my music & recording it is the only thing that seems to take me away from my troubles.

I love you. I am grateful for the lessons and wisdom that I come to hear when it is never coincidence. Yesterday, with deep intention, I spent time connecting to source and the universe, and it was different and I am different since. I woke up and that unexplainable feeling and energy carried over into today. I am grateful and also curious. With some hesitation I began to surrender and release my doubts and fears to source and the universe , without fully able to trust it…yet with the intention to continue until I do. Hearing this gave me some clarity that the universe does work in miraculous ways, when we act and believe from our heart and souls. By now I’m certain I am familiar to you, that feels warm and genuine. You have generously shared yourself in response to my sharing after listening, learning, and feeling…and that feels like a gift and a beautiful connection. Oh and the pause, after you initially said “What is the sound of one hand clapping”, was perfect to allow it to sink in; and I laughed out loud and smiled, then was really able to understand this with a smile.🙏🏼

Thank you dear Premasudha
