SydneyJim<p>To be truly <a href="https://body.social/tags/Naked" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Naked</span></a> is to reveal the core of one’s being, without hiding behind <a href="https://body.social/tags/social" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>social</span></a> masks or cultural expectations. When we embrace <a href="https://body.social/tags/Nakedness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nakedness</span></a> without fear or shame, we confront the deepest aspects of our conditioned <a href="https://body.social/tags/mind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mind</span></a>. Why do we feel discomfort when our <a href="https://body.social/tags/bodies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bodies</span></a> are exposed? Why do we fear judgment from others when our <a href="https://body.social/tags/natural" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>natural</span></a> state is revealed?

SydneyJim<p>In the practice of <a href="https://body.social/tags/ZenBuddhism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ZenBuddhism</span></a>, shame &amp; embarrassment are recognised for what they are - constructs, mere passing thoughts that cling to the <a href="https://body.social/tags/mind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mind</span></a> like mist, only to dissolve under the sun’s light.
