On the other hand one could say that it's a pretty shallow understanding of Zen, given that Buddhism assumes that everything in the mind - being a part of nature - is fully conditioned (deterministic), as opposed to Christian view of a human as a holy, God-like creature, distinctly different than the rest of nature.
