Flexibility

If zazen practice is just to acquire or to attain some special experience, that is not true zazen. True zazen that you have acquired or obtained through right practice is more than just experience. You may say what you acquire by right meditation is power of adjusting yourself according to the circumstances. Sometime we put emphasis on flexibility. --------------------------------------------------  Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-01-11B as found on shunryusuzuki.com. Edited by DC
