The dissatisfaction (suffering, anguish, trouble) we experience does not happen accidentally. It is caused. The chief purpose of Zen Buddhism is the same as the chief purpose of all Buddhist practices, namely, the end of dissatisfaction. Ultimately, it is ego that causes the greediness, hostility, and delusion, which are the three poisons, that causes dissatisfaction. So the chief values of Zen Buddhism have to do with the antidotes to these poisons. Ego-delusion is undermined by clarity, insight, and present-moment awareness. This is the way to freedom, the way to abiding peace and ease.
