Zen Intention

Zen Intention describes Bodhicitta (The awake mind). Explains how the awareness of all experiences without attachment, aversion or judgment is the proper intention that guides shikantaza (just sitting) the primary contemplative practice in the Soto Zen tradition;
applications to meditation practice; a brief silent practice period to engage in the descriptions and teachings; raises the point that the practitioner internalize the teachings, makes it one's own for personal benefit as well as for the benefit of all beings

So glad you decided to publish this since I missed the Friday session. The message is always the same, isn’t it? Always simple. Always consistent. The best thing for me is that it works without external props. The Friday group is very important to me, but not essential. It’s the practice. Thank you

Thanks for posting this talk, Seiso. Very interesting. I missed it in December. I can't often participate in the morning zazen sessions now as they are at 11pm for me, so I'm usually asleep. I was there last night though. As usual your teachings challenge us and give us a lot to consider and to hopefully incorporate into our practice. I'll keep at it. There's nothing else to do really. 😏🙏

Thanks for posting this teaching. I remember hoping you would.
Very good lesson. 🙏🙏

Thanks so much for this excellent track to gently guide me into silent sits … thank you, Seiso 🙏
