Introduction to Zen Living

 


 Hello and thank you for visiting Zen Living

 Please understand I would never try to convince you of something you don’t feel comfortable with. Because you may or may not have your religious philosophy and belief system in place, and whether you do or do not, it is not my design to change that. If you feel you need to change your religious views, then that is entirely up to you. That’s not what this is about, it has nothing to do with religion, but it is spiritually Zen.

Zen is a part of everyone and everything regardless of whether you are aware of it or not. Zen can have many meanings for many people and Zen is also used for many reasons.

 There are formal Zen schools of thought and training as well as several styles of teaching.  It is also a constant learning process and the philosophy supporting Zen learning is the more you learn the more you will benefit from its training.

 Hmm…I guess that is also Zen.

Whether you attend a Zen school or seek private instruction from a Zen master the primary emphasis is on awakening, finding your inner strength, and enlightenment.

By engaging in some of the fundamental processes of Zen, like meditation and relaxation techniques, you may find that you have more positive energy in your life as well.

Zen influences the dark side of our daily lives. Some would say that negative issues like fear, anger, self limiting beliefs, stress, and failure are not Zen qualities.

I agree to a certain extent because these are negative qualities that you don’t want, however I submit to you that Zen does in fact influence them.

As I reflect on my Zen teachings, and the philosophies I learned from my masters, the single most important thing in all of creation is balance or Yin Yang.

 Zen can positively influence key areas of your life. These influence Zen and personal finances, physical ailments through the aging process, and sleeping habits, to name a few.

Zen has an influence on your surroundings, your home, your work place, and your world.

You will discover the benefits of having a Zen approach to life and how it can have a positive influence on your relationships, your self confidence, happiness, forgiveness, spirituality, and love.

So as you can see Zen and Yin Yang are very hard at work in your life whether you are aware of it or not.
