sometimes the words are hard to find to describe the type of experience that is being experienced ...?

Absolutly dear Blueseasparkling,

It is quite controversial and can cause some discomfort when in Zen the best way of knowledge is called Negemisho or silent learning thorugh sitting meditation or zazen. We do not get into intense argumentation so words are just used to stop the chattering mind that is all day with us thorug the Koan method.

This brings us the development of what is called "Right View" that is the core of our tradition and is supported by a deep commitment with the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Noble Path as direct teachings from Buddha and other suttas that concern only to the Zen Tradition.
