<p><span style="color:#000080;"><strong>of the subconsciousness (so-called mind-set) was, when I gave up any relation with woman.</strong></span></p>
<p>It was triggered by two factors appeared on 1987. One was the first report of incurable new disease AIDS</p>
<p>(it didn&#8217;t have even a name then) = sexual relation is no longer safe.</p>
<p>And the other was the start of a trouble with a woman who exploited my VISA status by a false registration</p>
<p>of the marriage done in Japan, in order to get new passport and obtained the VISA masqueraded as my wife.</p>
<p>(It took 11 hearing in the High Court to make the Judge to realize it really happened without my knowledge.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8211; Japanese Registrar had no way to know whether my signature was genuine or not and the name seal</p>
<p>was mine or false one, woman bought in the stationery shop, which she confessed and astonished the Judge)</p>
<p>(Yet still The Judge who<strong> didn&#8217;t even know the difference of [Void and Voidable Marriage] made </strong></p>
<p><strong>this to a valid marriage, hence it was brought up to the Court of Appeal)</strong></p>
<p>= I really utterly fed up “Woman is nothing but a trouble” (in addition to this Judiciary is utterly rotten) 😀</p>
<p>(Funny story is, I was told that the trouble with woman will happen, by my mother as she read</p>
<p>my palm when I was 10 years old &#8212;&#8211; for me,  it sounds just an unscientific mambo-jumbo then)</p>
<p><span style="color:#ffffff;">[]</span></p>
<p>It caused me not only a deep psychological trauma but the situation itself made any relation impossible.</p>
<p>In order to fight over the validity of the marriage in the High Court and the Court of Appeal, it completely</p>
<p>consumed my time, finance and energy.  All of my friends were even amazed, how I could manage without</p>
<p>braking down.  ( Still,  it was not as heavy as mountain climbing as there may not be a danger of death.</p>
<p>After all, proceedings is the research of precedence and compiling documents = clerical work = <span style="color:#000080;"><strong>Just do it</strong></span> )</p>
<p>&#8212;-whether it was my choice or not, I had to follow the situation and</p>
<p>think<strong> “I&#8217;m not in a position even to think about woman”</strong> = it was not a relative matter, but absolute</p>
<p>imperative = (this is so-called Mindfulness) &#8212;<span style="color:#000080;"><strong> as this psyche sunk deep down to my subconscious,  </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000080;"><strong>the notion of woman has disappeared and it became a distant land scape.</strong></span></p>
<p>(Still, they are visually pretty land scape though,</p>
<p><span style="color:#000080;"><strong>they no longer appeal to my mind / in a sexual context &#8212;&#8211; then I realized </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000080;"><strong>“Aha, this is the very eyes of so-called Medical Detachment of a Gynecologist” 😀 )</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ffffff;">[]</span></p>
<p>So that, when I was a regular in the Fridge Club, Brixton London (Escape from Samsara), every weekend</p>
<p>for nearly 6 years, I was just dancing there without mixing with cloud.</p>
<p>Many people mistook me as a special security or under-cover policeman even the owner of the club,</p>
<p>because I don&#8217;t take alcohol neither drug, never talk with girls (except the bar staff) still always there.</p>
<p>In reality, seeing hundreds of half-naked girls shaking their bottom every week, made me even more</p>
<p>insensitive, if not utterly nauseating.</p>
<p><span style="color:#000080;"><strong>I was there not just for dancing, but like a zoological researcher to observe male-female behavior.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ffffff;">[]</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000080;"><strong>As a matter of fact, I myself had amazed by this change of psyche.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000080;"><strong>Since, even the most fundamental instinct could disappear just with a mind-set,  it convinced me</strong></span></p>
<p>that all the fancy stories in the martial art, sword mastery must be true = they really</p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>able to overcome the fear of the death, </strong></span> hence able to come closer to hair-line distance to the enemy&#8217;s sword.</p>
<p><span style="color:#0000ff;">&#8212;&#8211;<strong> Liberate the mind from the fear, hence able to obtain the ultimate freedom of the movements.</strong></span></p>
<p>Then all the Zen stories, has started fallen into the places, like the pieces of Jigsaw Puzzle,</p>
<p><span style="color:#000080;"><strong>and it started to show whole picture of what the Zen is.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>Zen is not an ideological / religious mambo-jumbo but a very logical / rational mind engineering.</strong></span></p>
<p>&#8212;&#8211; As even the most fundamental instinct / sexual desire could be annihilated, why not any another desire or</p>
<p>the mind.   What is the point to be imprisoned by such desire or being obsessed and become greedy.</p>
<p><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>We can make ourselves free from any mind, idea or the situation, and able to choose what ever </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>better to do.   This freedom is the Enlightenment.</strong></span></p>
<p>(But remember, don&#8217;t chose chocolate and junk food 😀 )</p>
<p><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>___/\___</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ffffff;">&#8212;</span></p>
