zazen is a form of meditation that comes from zen buddhism. to me, it is the “rock & roll” of all forms of meditation. there is really no bullshit ideology attached to it, nobody making money off of it (people don’t make money off of the rock n roll spirit, they make money selling plastic) and no false promises of enlightenment in 10 minutes or getting in touch with your third testicle or something (with a 30 day money back guarantee). it’s about facing things. seeing life for what it really is. i am looking forward to seeing my zazen gang once again and sitting together silently to stare at a wall for 40 minutes. it’s been awhile since i did the group meditation but i have been practicing on my own on/off. of course the doors are open for all who are interested in having a little dose of hardcore truth injected in to their minds (and that is not a false promise!). i suggest the “tough” guys/gals and the self-delusioned (although we all are to some extent) stay at home and watch big brother although we all know deep down inside that bb is actually watching us… while sitting in zazen.
