How boring to sit idly on the floor,
 

Not meditating, not breaking through.
 

Look at the horses racing along

The Kamo River!

That's zazen!

* ZAZEN *

 
« The Sixth Ancestor Hui Neng came across two monks who were arguing about a banner flapping in the wind. One said, "The banner is moving." The other said, "The wind is moving." They went back and forth without coming to agreement.......The Sixth Ancestor said, "It's not that the wind is moving; it's not that the banner moves; it's your mind that is moving." The two monks were stunned. «............

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.......................It is not the mind that is moving, it is the moving that is the mind.......................Love is the law, love under will.

Is is not even the mind that is moving. Is is existence that is moving. It is all the same
