Often those new to Buddhist practice or even more experienced ask about the best posture and technique for practicing zazen, sitting meditation. Others never learn the right way and end up turned off to meditation practice and sometimes even Buddhism. In this talk and Q & A, learn the ten easy steps to meditate. Often even the most experienced meditator has a wandering mind and thus needs a refresher on how best to practice sitting meditation. This talk will combine the intellect with the experiential practice; it is best for beginners to the most experienced. Presented by Dharma Teacher Rev. Senpai Lewis-Bastías.
“What we call “I” a just a swinging door which means when we inhale and when we exhale.”
