The mind of the beginner is empty, free of the habits of the experts, ready to accept, to doubt, and open to all possibilities.
Shunryu SuzukiFaith is a state of openness or trust...In other words, a person who is fanatic in matters of religion, and clings to certain ideas about the nature of God and the universe, becomes a person who has no faith at all. Instead they are holding tight. But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to the truth, whatever it might turn out to be.
