"stillness reflections" ~ well said my friend! Perhaps the best haiku poems contain the very same magical properties as the zen koan.

Truly P.M., Your most cogent comments point to a belief I have that all these awareness "zones" from meditation, Zen, Buddhist introspection are all components of "consciousness". The Aha of magic also encroaches on that same aspect of human experience. Thank you for your thoughts.

Yes, in fact, magic may be helpful for new meditators to learn how to "stop thinking". Thanks John for your comments.
