Sincerity and just being

I have been listening to The Ordinary Mind Zen School Sydney podcast. The Dharma talks given by Geoff Dawson are fairly short with good audio quality. Three Chords and the Truth comes from a description of country music. Using this to talk about Soto Zen practice, he discusses sincerity. 

That reminded me of what I am trying to say about my Zen practice not intended to be discouraging to fellow Christians who are sincere in their practice. I know there are people who respect my views and I don't want my Zen practice to be a statement against Christianity. This is what it's working for me and I'm glad at what is working for them. 

Another talk was No God, No Governor, No Ego. He mentions how many believe that there must be a God who controls and divides into good and evil. He says, Allow things to just be. Turn up to each moment and let them be. In our life we can pilot and organize but this is not a controlling thing. Think about how we effortlessly walk and breathe. Ego is just a construction that gets in the way. Clean, not cluttered but not controlling.
