About zuowang meditation and Daoist Koan practice
  Zuowang meditation is a core Daoist practice consisting of The View that we are already a part of a complete whole-the Dao, and that our Original Nature is realized simply through the resting in non-dual awareness that there are not two things in the entire universe. The method is allowing everything to slip from the mind, forgetting, not dwelling on thoughts, no preferences.
  Daoist Koan practice is making use of questions which lead us to the direct realization experience of Complete Perfection.
