I participated in Sunday Zazen Session at Daijoji Temple on November 15th.
"Zazen"is Zen meditation.
Doing Zazen requires that you free your mind of all thought.
Nine of foreign monitors attended a Zazen Session for the first time.
The maple leaves have turned red at Daijoji Temple.
Mr.Hojun is from Australia, a monk practicing asceticism.
He showed us around the Daijoji Temple.
Pressing the palms together, fingertips at nose height, and bowing slightly.
Mr.Hojun talked about Zen meditaion, his lifestyle at Daijoji Temple and so on.
We all had a precious experience through Zazen Session.
