What is Zen? “What it is cannot be spoken of, and that which can be spoken of is not it”. One cannot understand Zen by simply discussing it or even reading about it. Zen is an art of self-discovery and awakening which must be experienced first hand. “For who accepts harmony, the Way harmonizes with him” -TAO TE CHING – “Those who know do not say. But those who say do not know.”

Decide for yourself what is zen and what it means to you. Zen is simplicity, beauty and awareness. Less is more. Does it have to be complicated? Are my ten steps the true path? What is truth? I share my path as a starting point here and now. Ask yourself, what is zen? Find it.
