Atmosphere

It may look very difficult to sit without any gaining idea. As you sit today, at least you should be completely involved in the atmosphere or feeling of the zendo, and just practice our way. You should not bring in many ideas in zendo. -------------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-10-12-A as found on shunryusuzuki.com. Edited by DC  - Going through Suzuki lectures and posting anything that can stand on its own. Not looking for zingers or "the best of." I find that following these excerpts daily provides another way to experience Suzuki's teaching. - DC
