Understanding sitting meditation as a form of mind training, is a form of misunderstanding of what zazen is.
Zazen includes this form of meditation,
It does not include zazen.
Mushotoku is central
Any distancing from this non-profit spirit
Has nothing to do with the heart of Zen.

Many thanks to all.
You have a habit of throwing out stealthy paradoxes.
There is no profit in seeking profit.
There is profit in seeking no profit.
That does not work.
Perhaps the resolution is: no profit is a proper state that is realised by not seeking.
Other, better formulations may be possible. That was very much an immediate reaction.
