  • Effective Zen: The path on Zen Mountain that gives any one individual the best chance of reaching the peak (realizing non-duality).

  • Zen Mountain: The collection of all possible Zen paths.

  • Fundamental Activity Model: “To and from zero activity, manifested activity inevitably arises and returns.”
