Zen

Perfectly balanced and still, the body weight resting on the knees, the spine stretched towards the sky, leaning neither forward nor backward, we simply erase, at each moment, all unnecessary tensions, all intentions.

It is through this practice that Shakyamuni became Buddha. Not through Buddhism, it did not exist. Not through the sutras, they had not yet been written.

In the peaceful posture of awakening, from silence and stillness, naturally, unconsciously, we give freedom to all things. Consciousness opens to infinity.

Giving freedom to our thoughts means remaining still before them. That is how we are Buddha. Do not doubt this, do not look elsewhere!
