Please teach me Zen.

A student asked Suzuki Roshi: “Please teach me Zen.”“We sit every morning.” replied Suzuki Roshi.

After six months the student said: "I have sat every day and you still haven't taught me Zen!" Roshi replied: "We also sit in the evenings."

— the wisdom of Shunryu Suzuki, Zen Master.

Zen is meditation. I can teach you Zen. It’s simple. We sit every morning. Will you join me?

You don't need to be a Zen Buddhist, or to become a Zen Buddhist. I'm not one, although I am a former lay ordained Zen teacher. I'm nothing. Nobody. No label. That's true Zen.

Be nothing, and come with an open mind and an open heart to this project, and all will be good.

I am preparing to launch a silent sitting project, with the opportunity to join me and others online in daily silent sitting, contemplation and meditation. There will also be the opportunity to form local groups, with support from me, where you can benefit from shared experience with a small group of friends or like minded people.

We're starting a group here in Menorca, you can join us with your own local group. Groups will receive setup and practice guidelines, notes for facilitators, other materials, and direct support from me.

Further details of the launch will be shared here, next week.
