Zen Meditation


Reply to: David Samuel <david@davidsamuel.net>

Last month I offered to start a Zen meditation group in Boquete. Unfortunately, I had to go to PC shortly after that, but I am back now.

I am ready to start the group now.  We will begin with a little talk and Q&A about Zen and meditation in general, along with a comparative to other traditions of meditation I have studied including Sufi to give a good variety and make it an interesting and informative evening.

If you are interested in joining sittings of traditional Japanese Zen meditation, feel free to contact me. The dates and times will be determined as soon someone comes up with a location.  Anywhere quiet is good, preferably with enough room to sit on the floor but we can make due with whatever we have.  A school is any place people are gathered to learn.  Unfortunately, I do not have a place large enough for more than 4 people, so I cannot offer my little spot.

Instruction will be provided to ensure that we all follow the same practice for the sake of perfect harmony in the meditation. 

Private meetings (dokusan) will be available before and after each sitting or by arrangement.

I have spent time in a Zen monastery in Japan and other Zen centres and so maintain the traditional methods, and have been teaching for over 20 years.

The cost will depend on the location, in case the owner wants to charge for the use of the space. Rest assured this is not a money making business, probably just a couple of dollars will do.

Information about me can be found at my web site on which I publish many articles on various aspects of the mind and balance in life   http://entrepreneurmonk.com/

Instruction on Tai Chi, Qi Gong and Kyudo (if you have the archery equipment) is also possible, just ask and we will work out a place to practice.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind Regards,
David
