The Spirit of Zen

“Do not follow the ideas of others, but learn to listen to the voice within yourself.”

― Dōgen Zenji

 

 

Naturalness.

 

A simple pureness.

 

Accepting what is.  Accepting what has been, without attaching to past conditioning.

 

The art of achieving, without over-striving.

 

The art of knowing, without knowing.

 

The art of action, through non-action.

 

The art of having, without wanting or needing.

 

Stillness in motion.

 

Embracing the beginners mind.

 

Flowing with the challenges this life will bring.

 

Walking the path.

 

This is it – the spirit of Zen.
