How to do Zazen

[♥Starlene]

I found a very cool website about how to do zazen. Zazen is a particular kind of meditation, unique to Zen, that functions centrally as the very heart of the practice. In fact, Zen Buddhists are generally known as the "meditation Buddhists." Basically, zazen is the study of the self.

Just thought I would share!

Yikes! Those monks must have really flexible knees. Don't think I could pretzel-ize myself like they do.

hehehe,,, i dont usually sit in lotus position when I meditate, although I can get into that position I dont think its all that comfy, you can sit in half lotus or even crossed legged and get the same effect though
