Title: 'SITTING LOOSE' to life,

The Zen experience is one of 'sitting loose' to life, and it is therefore in sharp contrast to the somewhat 'driven' left-brain orientation of the West, with its emphasis on rationality, logic and control. It appears, therefore, to have much in common with the Inner Game ideas of Tim Gallwey. And the role played by the Zen koan (e.g. "What is the sound of one hand clapping?") as a puzzle to jolt the individual into a fresh way of looking at things appears to have a resonance with the concept of lateral thinking in creativity.
