Principles of Zazen (Meditation) "Studying Zen is zazen. For zazen, one should have a quiet place... Cast aside all involvements and discontinue the myriad affairs. Good is not thought of; evil is not thought of. It is not mind, intellect or consciousness; it is not thoughts, ideas or perceptions.... Having thus regulated body and mind, take a breath and exhale fully. Sitting fixedly, think of not thinking. How do you think of not thinking? Nonthinking. This is the art of zazen."
Dogen, 1243 CE* <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
