Zazen Event May 12, 2017

The green maples in Choontei was really a stunning sight. From the moss on the ground to the leaves on the trees, different colors of green floods into your eyes in waves. After a quick explanation on Zazen from the monks, we folded our legs, relaxed our bodies and controlled our breath to start the meditation. Clearing your mind was a lot harder than we thought! But we had a really good time experiencing a unique part of Japanese culture and laughed about how hard the monk hit us with their Kesaku to help us stay focused.
Hope to see you guys soon! Drop by to say Hi when you visit Kyoto!
