I thought I would share some of my personal, non-commercial (there's no money here, lol) Zen work with the Bitcoin world.
I know financial trading is a harsh business: Having once been a Bitcoin investor, learning to keep my mind empty and cool helped me pay my expenses when the market was rough.
Here's my process that helps balance my mind towards living my life more effectively while remaining as-it-is (especially in financial trading):
The Enlightenment Process[Initial Satori] Step 1:
Do you see all as inherently perfect, complete and empty?
If yes, continue to Step 2.
If no, reside in Step 1. through passive or active meditation until inherent emptiness, perfection and completion are understood.
[Maintaining Satori] Step 2:
Suffering encountered:
A: Do you wish to see the suffering as true and existing and release it in passive or active meditation towards completion and emptiness once more? If so, do such.
B: Else, do you wish to leave the suffering as inherently empty and complete yet still remaining as suffering; In other words, do you instead choose to ignore your suffering or the suffering of another? If not, attempt A.
Continue to Step 3.
[Enlightenment] Step 3:
In Step 2. if your suffering or the suffering of another is found true, then make it empty as inherent truth in passive or active meditation with no need for the designation of truth.
If your suffering is left as inherently empty and ignored as in B, repeat the above until suffering is encountered and at once made true and empty.
Logical version:
1. ∀Undefined
2. Suffering encountered: True OR Undefined?
3. If true, then make suffering undefined. If suffering is inherently undefined, repeat above until truth is encountered and is necessarily made undefined.
Additionally, here's a Zen-based logical process that has implications in balanced, effortless skill building (feel free to ask me questions about this):
Zen LogicNull/0. True OR False (Fullness)
1. Undefined (Emptiness)
2. Definition //Literally: Undefined of Truth/Falsity
3. Proposition //Literally: Undefined of Undefined
4. Contradiction //Literally: Undefined of Undefined of Truth/Falsity; Pattern continues below.
5. Hypothesis
6. Test
7. Solution //May you ask yourself this: Do 2. through 7. exist in the face of emptiness?
8. Truth (Dharma)
9. Falsity (Non-Dharma)
10. Absolute Contradiction (Dharma is Non-Dharma)
11. Absolute Truth OR Absolute Falsity (Dharma is Absolutely True OR Dharma is Absolutely False) //Pick the latter and become "pure evil."
Thanks for reading!
