And what is this hole? The hole is only a construct of the mind. In zazen there is no hole; there is no you; there is no me ... there is just zazen. Zazen aids us to move past these thoughts and ideas and to be present in each and everything ... even if we are "whole-less" in this hole-less hole. =)
