It's not imagined. If one takes their attention off the mind, both effortless effort and deliberate effort cease to exist. What is life? What is now? What am I? - if thought and thinking is not a part of it?

Do not aspire to great realization. Great realization is everyday tea and meals.

Quote:
A master was making soup in his hut when a disciple entered and sat with reverence. The master was moving very slowly with great attention. The disciple grew inpatient and blurted out, "Master what is enlightenment?"

The master held up the herbs in his hand saying, "this dill is enlightenment," then the master gently placed them in the simmering soup.
