Fukanzazengi "Universal Principles Of Zen Meditation" 7

This talk serves as a practical follow-up to my six talks on Dōgen’s Fukanzazengi, “Universal Principles of Zen Meditation,” which I advise listening to first; Offers a series of practice points to fine-tune the posture and practice of shikantaza, or “just sitting.” Please be aware that while there is a period of silent meditation in this talk, it is meant as a sample practice guide that you can extend once you internalize the practice and make it your own.

Just realized I missed this seventh part. Thank you for the instruction and education. I enjoyed these.
As always, I struggle with the eyes open. I am easily distracted by something in view. I am also still refining my comfortable place to sit. 🙏🙏

Extremely helpful. The physical aspects of sitting have been a bit challenging for me & this has motivated me to try harder. Many thanks

Vivid, unpretentious instructions on how to sit with generous curiosity about whatever experience is experienced now. I have always held my left hand below my right (I’m left handed) should I attempt to change this? If so for what reason? Thank you I have found these short lessons refreshingly succinct and clear. 🙏 thanks very much for the reply 🙏
