|  karatetraining | Mar 21, 6:43am | I thought I would start a self-serving thread were we can share resources for Zen reflections.
This blog, Martial Thoughts (yes, it is mine) offers a 100+ traditional and non-traditional Zen sayings and poetry with commentary for your meditation and reflection. Please let me know what you think with a comment there, here or both. I add several a month and I'm alway open to contributors.
I hope you find the site useful as I don't want to get flamed! |

These things only serve to distract you from reality.
Zen is about recognizing and accepting reality, not avoiding it. |

Both accepting and avoiding are diseases of the mind. |
