A. Brightness in Zen meditation means the state freed from discrimination. That is additionally referred to as the knowledge to see issues as they’re. Within the state with none discrimination, there can’t be any distinction between brightness and darkness, far and close to, proper and fallacious, massive and small, alive and useless, and issues like that.
For this reason historical masters would say that true brightness is as darkish as midnight, once they have been requested what true brightness is. So, it’s mentioned that the smart can see what’s hundreds of miles away as simply as they’ll see what’s simply earlier than their eyes.
