The Essence of Zen
Zen is not a doctrine or philosophy, but a way of life. It cannot be grasped through concepts or words, but is a direct experience of the present moment. Zen is about letting go of thoughts and being fully present. It is a state of being that is beyond the concepts of transcendental or ordinary, infinite or finite, temporal or timeless. Through the practice of meditation or zazen, one can quiet the mind and experience the world without the filter of concepts, leading to a deeper understanding of reality.
