The aim to zazen is to meditate. It is easy to zazen, but how to get the meditation is another thing. I am lucky man, because I can meditate immediately. It is that that this kind of lucky nature has some unfortunate qualities: “gullible, solitary, preoccupied. For example: I was focusing on something (cooking, writing, reading, dreaming, watching TV), if you asked me to do one thing, maybe I will promised quickly. But after, I will never bring to mind.

The aim to zazen is to meditate. It is easy to zazen, but how to get the meditation is another thing. I am lucky man, because I can meditate immediately. It is that that this kind of lucky nature has some unfortunate qualities: “gullible, solitary, preoccupied. For example: I was focusing on something (cooking, writing, reading, dreaming, watching TV), if you asked me to do one thing, maybe I will promised quickly. But after, I will never bring to mind. I began to learn to zazen, because of insomnia. At that time, I lived on an island which was located beside the mountain. There was a corridor among three bedrooms at second floor. A big skylight was above the corridor, so the sunshine could come in through it. When I zazen under the skylight, I can always feel the “empty” and the barriers in my mind could run away.
If you want to get the “empty”, you need to stop thinking at first. It is impossible for the modern people to stop thinking, because of our mind was full of the meaningless, fragment, and battered information. It is very dirty just like the stomach of human being. Magazine in United States published a statistics that modern people have to process the information 1000 times more than the people at the shake Shakespeare era.
In fact, I can’t tell you how wonderful the feeling. When I saw the people walked in a hurry from the bus, I could not understand what they pursued? What they worry about? Only because they wanted to came back home quickly to watch TV; only because of the stock raised or fell; only because the lover lost or regained. All of these things I can never mind. At this time, I think that maybe the people is satisfied with a little thing, and the satisfying means happiness.
Of course, I knew that after zazen, the dirty information will come back again. But during the time of zazen, I felt happy at all. When I was paying attention to write, suddenly I felt I forget to breathe and release my back. Maybe it is a way to meditation.
