Bodhidharma, 520 AD: He Sat Facing a Wall for 9 Years. This Is What He Saw. | Legendary Mystics & Sa

Bodhidharma arrived in China in 520 AD and spent nine years in meditation facing a cave wall at Shaolin. The legend says he cut off his own eyelids to stay awake. His realization founded the Chan (Zen) school. His 'wall-gazing' wasn't about seeing something new, but seeing through the illusion of a separate self. Do you think true insight requires shutting out the world, or seeing it more clearly?
