Zazenkai

With palms together,

Good Morning All,

 

Tomorrow we will practice zazen throughout the day.  It is Zazenkai day at Zen Center.  I look forward to this opportunity to practice with you.  If you are not within distance of Zen Center or are otherwise occupied with matters of consequence, please practice mindfulness through your day.

 

Each day the sun comes up, we are offered the opportunity to become a buddha. Yet these days are numbered.  It is up to you not to waste your time.

 

This means in each act, each breath, of each moment, we are to make ourselves aware of each act, each breath, and each moment.  This is attention.  It requires practice. When we practice all things change, they come alive.  The colors are brighter, the textures are more vibrant, because our senses are keener. We use our attention to open ourselves to the universe.

 

This is a very good thing.
