Za-Zen

Section: Meditation - Category: Zen meditation

For westerners, Zen meditation (Za-Zen) used to be hard to digest before an American, Genpo Roshi (Dennis Merzel) – the highest ranked Zen master outside Japan, tweaked it to suit the different Western mentality. Combining Za-Zen with insights from Western psychological pioneers such as Carl Jung, Fritz Perls and Hal Stone, Genpo Roshi created the Big Mind process that gives the practitioner a glimpse into the enlightenment, the serene feeling of divine. This glimpse can be subsequently repeated and prolonged by sustained meditation.

Mind quotes

The unique personality which is the real life in me, I can not gain unless I search for the real life, the spiritual quality, in others. I am myself spiritually dead unless I reach out to the fine quality dormant in others. For it is only with the god enthroned in the innermost shrine of the other, that the god hidden in me, will consent to appear.

Felix Adler
