realist spirituality

[technozendo]

i was thinking about this other day... actually yesterday... about how in the past couple months i've become a real hardheaded realist... how i've become disinterested in searching for mystical and/or supernatural reasons

I just try to see things as they are.

I understand what you mean, but I've heard so many views of realism. I remember reading a Zen story where a monk and his student saw a rabbit and the monk said, "what do you see with the rabbit?" and the monk said, "he's a beautiful creature!" and the monk said, "i just see a rabbit" or something along those lines.

right... well by all means realism is just a word... but its the closest word i can find to describe my attitude on things... :-)
