Morning Zen

 

Morning Zen is like morning light. While it is dark outside, I feel the light within. In the black robe, It is time for me to greet the dawn.  Reciting the Verse of Repentance, The Three Refuges, and the Wisdom Heart Sutra, I set myself upright and set my intention for the day as I begin to practice zazen.  Master Dogen says when we study the Buddha Way, we study ourselves and in that study mind and body fall away. When this happens, he say, we are enlightened by the myriad things. And so it goes; day buy day, hour by hour, minute by minute, moment by moment.

Be well, be free
