Why would such a thing be difficult or impossible in reality when
ideally it is feasible? For three reasons: the finitude of the brain,
the anchoring of
perception, and the ego-epistemology of partial knowing.

Without wishing to imply that I know a great deal about Zen Buddhism, it
is my understanding that the essential thing is to take, as it were,
inaction rather than action. Brains are designed for the purpose of
taking action and, from my own experience, it seems to be no easy matter
to get the chattering to stop.
The idea that; our meaning derives wholly from our relationships, is one
to which I can unreservedly subscribe. It seems to me the rest of your
argument follows seamlessly from this premise.
Wrap it up, I'll take it!
Warm regards
