Anyway, my understanding of Buddhism is, hmm, how do I phrase this, that you go thru a series of (internal personal) questions about life, et al, and when you get to the point when the answer is neither yes or no, you have reached Zen, or not reached Zen?

But, it's the abacus thing, it has to be yes or no or you haven't reached an answer at all. (Very contradictory in my mind.)

But, as far as I know, Buddhists hold no belief in heaven nor hell nor reincarnation.

Correct if I'm wrong and I know I'm wording this wrong . . . and contradicting myself.

I'm so confused. ;-)
