Zen Meditation - Is Your Mind Not Thinking?

Zen is about transcending thinking, but not for humans. We rise above thought, which means there's no thinking - just a relaxed alertness. Develop the skill of perceiving what's around you through sual perception or auditary perception and maybe some of the others. For example, by not always getting your thrown out of your pocket. When there's a moment of waiting for something, just be there and don't wait. Just be look around, take in your sense perceptions,. develop the ability to perceive without the interference of thought.
