Monday Night Zazen
What is the use of doing zazen? There is no use in doing zazen. Until this penetrates your thick skull and you are really doing zazen that is of no use, it is really of no use. - Kodo Sawaki Roshi (1880-1965)
A violet blossoms as a violet and a rose blossoms as a rose. For violets, there is no need to produce rose blossoms. - Kosho Uchiyama (1912-1998)

- Dogen Zenji (1200 - 1253)
