Sunday Zen Meditation at UUCO resumes April 5
(No Classes in March)
31 CR 198, Oxford, MS 38655
Zen Meditation is unlike other forms of meditation in that
there are no external objects of focus or stimulation, such as mantras or
music. Instead, we constantly return to
– become one with – our own breath.
We will practice a few simple techniques for learning to do this, and thereby
quiet the restlessness of mind and body that obscures wisdom found in silence and stillness.
The three Recursive Stages in developing Zazen (Zen
Meditation) as a method of increasing self-knowledge, equanimity, centeredness,
patience, and resilience are:
· One-pointed
concentration
· Absorption
· Samadhi
