Zen

"Zen is not about self improvement. We don’t strive to become something, or to overcome our deficiencies. We practice to allow the natural, authentic unfolding of buddha-nature to manifest. Our effort is about clearing away delusion and ignorance. In this way, healing and world peace are not an impossible distant dream, but exist right now, right here in this very moment." ~Zen Master Bon Soeng; Empty Gate Zen Center in Berkeley, CA
