La méditation - Eclat de Lune

En raison de ses résultats remarquables sur notre bien-être physique et mental, cette technique millénaire connaît un vif succès. La pratique Les techniques de méditation reposent toutes sur le même principe : une posture "juste", une respiration profonde, la conscience du moment présent. Les positions pour atteindre le calme de l’esprit sont parfois physiquement éprouvantes. La méthode consiste à fixer son regard sur un point imaginaire situé à environ un mètre de soi, et à laisser passer les idées qui nous viennent à l’esprit sans jamais s’y arrêter.

Zazen Meditation (Soto)

As the name Zen implies, Zen sitting meditation is the core of Zen practice and is called zazen in Japanese (Chinese tso-chan or zuòchán ). During zazen, practitioners usually assume a sitting position such as the lotus, half-lotus, Burmese, or seiza postures. To regulate the mind, awareness is directed towards counting or watching the breath or put in the energy center below the navel (Chinese dan tian, Japanese tanden or hara). Often, a square or round cushion (zafu, ??) placed on a padded mat (zabuton) is used to sit on; in some cases, a chair may be used. In [suite...]

Practicing Zazen or How to Sit like a Mountain - Meditation Forum ...

Zazen can be called the practice of "just sitting". As such, it stands in stark contrast to most other types of meditation, which we undertake in order to accomplish some set goal, whether it be learning to relax or attaining enlightenment. All these other forms of meditation can be considered in some degree mind-based or "mental". For one, we have a mental idea of what it is we would like to accomplish. Furthermore, many of these kinds of meditation require some form of focusing of the attention upon an object. In other words, we are using our minds in some specific, special way. I'm [suite...]

Is chanting meditation?

Am I actually meditating, or just taking the easy road (since I have no trouble with the chanting like I do with breath) and avoiding the discipline required to do zazen like I desire. I really like the chanting and was using it as a stepping stone to zazen, but if I am just fooling myself that this will actually help or prepare me for zazen I would like to know. I guess I am asking if I can get the same results from chanting meditation (if it is meditation) as from zazen. I hope this makes [suite...]

Review: The 14th Dalai Lama – a manga biography – CNN Belief Blog ...

Editor's Note: CNN's Gabe La Monica files this report on the new manga biography of the Dalai Lama. “Manga” in Japanese means “whimsical pictures.”  Author and illustrator Tetsu Saiwai brings whimsy to life in "The 14th Dalai: a Manga biography." The book is a hybrid comic book/graphic novel. The central character, Tenzin Gyatso, is introduced as a kind of 2-year-old embodiment of Rudyard Kipling’s Kim: an audacious and quick-witted boy with no fear. He grows up fast. At the age of 5, in 1939, Tenzin Gyatso becomes officially recognized as the 14th reincarnation [suite...]

zazen meditation techniques

Zen is short for zazen, and is the Buddhist practice of just sitting. Zen meditation techniques teach that by simply sitting and going through the process of casting off physical worries and concerns, the enlightened mind can be allowed to achieve greatness. Just sitting is harder than it may sound from those simple words, however. One cannot just sit and allow themselves to be held to earth by the bonds of every day life and worries. If so, their conscious mind will not be able to float free and attain greatness. One can also not allow themselves to be distracted by anything surrounding them [suite...]
