Loved and felt the moment of mindful consumption of a meal. Thank you.

No mention of the food itself. Fascinating. It’s not the first time I’ve encountered this. Attention is given to the implements, not to the actual hopefully nutritious and delicious food.

Thanks for sharing. May your life go well.

Love 🥣

He would be gone in less than A year, but the shows live on!

"I wonder how many things I'm not seeing" so true...

Thank you . . . plan to attend first practice in a few weeks. Helpful to view this offering.

Jacarandá is originally brazilian tree.

Jacarandá is originally brazilian tree.

There it is! the cure for the stress and anxiety of modern life. There should be centers like this all over the world.

A ceremony like this in a tropical country with such heavy tribes would be impossible.

Blue or purple hair should not be allowed. It is very distracting.

I remember going to the ice cream truck everyday as a child. It would stop right under that tree. I remember feeling small droplets of nectar dripping from the flowers, the ground was always sticky from the dipping nectar. This neighborhood has very old homes. I always wondered why you guys had that plaque above the entrance way and what was the meaning of Hazy Moon. I'm glad to know it's a Zen center.

Just watched this episode it’s one of my favorites. I love Jacaranda trees

How about making a proper and clear ORYOKI video instead of a general advertisement?

This is interesting, thank you. There's something great in the simplicity and completeness of oryoki that I find really intriguing.

Overall, wonderful. I don't understand the camera shutter click-video freezes though. I feel they interrupted the flow of the ceremony. I'd like to see this video without the editing.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

These videos are from the same talk...would be nice if they were in the sequence

Nyogen Roshi is a great and wonderful speaker and really delivers the message of the Dharma in an exciting and dynamic way. I wish more talks were available online.

Lovely!

This was his last episode . He was so sick when they filmed this but he wouldn't quit. God rest his soul. Can't believe it has been two years since we'll all lost him. Pastor hartwell

I started doing this on the final night of 2014, and I aim to spend the end of 2015 doing it again for at least an hour. I had difficulty keeping my back straight, which made me realize how much my regular posture differs from the way it should be. It's only been a few weeks but I'm noticing a change in my core muscles and back posture by doing this every night for at least a few minutes before bed. Thanks for the instructions, I'll use this video to set up my sitting position.

Is it normal that I started to see faces (had my eyes closed) whilist the first time practicing zazen.

OH MY GOD. An episode on the Jacaranda tree! Be still my heart! I have sequenced DNA from those trees!

Yes we would like to see and hear more of your lectures. there Very inspiring

Hi You hit on something very powerful toward the end when you mentioned that it would take as much intention not to practice. I learned this a few nights ago. You contribute to your Sangha whether you sho up to practice or not. when you leave your family to go to practice you dis appear from them, so that you can appear at practice thus you contribute to your family whether or not you go to practice. Negatively or positively or how much is all what you make in your mind. There is no way not practice nor will you practice all the time and perfectly. Even when we die we contribute to the Sangha and the Sangha is everywhere and everyone living or dead or appearing and disappearing.

I love this. Thanks for sharing

I always close my eyes and go into a daydream. Now I know why, thank you! :)

Nice tutorial.~

are we supposed to breathe from the mouth and exhale through the nose or the opposite?

Can and should it be done more than once a day? Thank you for doing this video.

i have tried counting with my eyes closed simply indefinitely. didnt produce the results i wanted, but seemed to to help me focus and let thoughts pass by more easily at the time. can you perhaps elaborate? also, i get the swinging too.

Appreciate the posting of this and other talks of Nyogen Roshi.

Really enjoy listening to Nyogen Roshi.

It's better not to. Closing your eyes helps activate your intellect and it's easier to fall into a daydream.

That's part of the trick. If you focus on emptying the mind, you'll look for an empty mind, and the mind will never be empty. By just counting the breath it will happen naturally without realizing or looking for it.

You actually don't want to look for an outcome, since we just want to be what we are there actually is no reaching.

Can christain also meditate and is always necessary to cross your feets?

I don't think that such a small thing as right hand over left is an argument to entertain. The true teaching is to make meditation work.

Love it

can you help me please? i got a light feeling of swinging back and forward and sometimes left and right, why is this happening ?

It's impossible for me to make the full lotus. Why can't I? :(

so glad to hear this, thanks

Thank you for help spreading awakening!!

Love this guy

can we do this meditation without any cushion

"My crash and burn is just as great as when I reach into the stars" Boy, I can relate to that.
