  • Every Day Is a Fine Day” Calligraphy by Roshi Keido Fukushima from the World Wisdom Online Library: Www
    “Every Day is a Fine Day” Calligraphy by Roshi Keido Fukushima From the World Wisdom online library: www. worldwisdom.com/public/library/default.aspx Every Day is a Fine Day It was a nasty day. It had been raining all day. I had been waiting to play golf all week, and now all plans for golf had to be can­ celled. I was in a bad mood. All I could think of was, “Why did it have to rain today?” Suddenly Gensho walked into the living room, all drenched with rain, and with a big smile shouted, “Every day is a fine day.” I remember that I said nothing to his exuberant comment. On the contrary—I was irritated, think­ ing, “How can it be a fine day when it’s raining cats and dogs and I can’t play golf.” This incident occurred in 1974 at Claremont. Ever since that day, on numerous occasions, I have heard Roshi Keido Fukushima use this phrase—“Every Day is a Fine Day”—in his talks on Zen. Now that I understand the Zen import of this phrase, I have often greeted my students in my classes on a cold, wintry day in Ohio with the remark, “Every day is a fine day.” It presents an opportunity for a good discussion. As for me, I can cancel a tee-time for a golf game without get­ ting a headache. So, what does Zen have to do with the weather? The Roshi explains that it was Ummon (864 - 949 C.E.), a T’ang dynasty Zen master in China, who was fond of using this phrase.

  • Zen Buddhism Profile
    Zen Buddhism By Jason Barker Founder: Bodhidharma (sixth century AD) Official Publications: Lankavatara Sutra; Lotus Sutra; Heart Sutra; Diamond Sutra; Surangama Sutra; Platform Sutra; koans HISTORY The founding of Zen Buddhism is traditionally linked to a story about the “Flower Sermon” given by Gautama Buddha, in which the Buddha simply stared at a flower; a disciple named Mahakasyapa broke into a wide smile after also staring at the flower, thereby giving birth to the wordless wisdom of Zen (the earliest appearance of this story is in 1029 AD, roughly 1400 years after the event).1 Zen maintains that this wordless wisdom was then transmitted outside the doctrinal teaching of Buddhism through a series of patriarchs until Ch’an—the Chinese form of (and predecessor to) Zen—was firmly established in the sixth century. Buddhism was brought from India to China approximately 148 AD, although it did not begin to grow as a religion distinct from the native Taoism until early in the third century.2 The religion did not become firmly established until approximately 5203, when the 28th patriarch (and first Zen patriarch), Bodhidharma, traveled from India to northern China. Bodhidharma reportedly spent nine years meditating while facing a wall in the famed Shao-lin monastery—stories about these years include anecdotes about his legs falling off, and his tearing away his eyelids to prevent himself from sleeping.4 Hui-neng, the sixth Zen patriarch and considered to be the father of modern Zen, attracted thousands of disciples in the late 600s with his intense emphasis on non-duality and regaining the original enlightenment in which we are born through “no-thought,” or refusing to entertain or become attached to thoughts.5 Zen was carried to Vietnam (becoming Thien Buddhism) in the late sixth century, and Korea (becoming Seon Buddhism) in the seventh-ninth centuries.

  • Running Head: the ART of LIVING MINDFULLY
    Running head: The ART OF LIVING MINDFULLY Zen and the art of living mindfully: The health-enhancing potential of Zen aesthetics Journal of Religion and Health, 2017 T. Lomas Department of Psychology, University of East London, London e-mail: [email protected] N. Etcoff Department of Psychology, Harvard University, USA W. V. Gordon Centre for Psychological Research, University of Derby, Derbyshire E. Shonin Awake to Wisdom Centre for Meditation and Mindfulness Research, Ragusa, Italy Note: this paper may not match the final version in the Journal of Religion and Health. 2 Running head: The ART OF LIVING MINDFULLY Abstract Amidst the burgeoning enthusiasm for mindfulness in the West, there is a concern that the largely secular ‘de-contextualized’ way in which it is being harnessed is denuding it of its potential to improve health and wellbeing. As such, efforts are underway to ‘re-contextualize’ mindfulness, explicitly drawing on the wider framework of Buddhist ideas and practices in which it was initially developed. This paper aims to contribute to this, doing so by focusing on Zen Buddhism, and in particular on Zen aesthetic principles. It concentrates on the seven principles identified by Shin’ichi Hisamatsu (1971) in his classic text Zen and the Fine Arts: kanso (simplicity); fukinsei (asymmetry); koko (austere sublimity); shizen (naturalness); daisuzoku (freedom from routine); sei-jaku (tranquillity); and yūgen (profound grace). The presence of these principles in works of art is seen as reflecting and communicating insights that are central to Buddhism, such as non-attachment. Moreover, these principles do not only apply to the creation and appreciation of art, but have clear applications for treating health-related disorders, and improving quality of life more generally.

We have been receiving a lot of rain this season, but last week there were three sunny days in a row when I was able to bike ride down to Seward Park and back each day. Our Zen garden is sublime this time of year, so well tended by many Chobo-Ji gardeners, most especially our Zen resident Sally Zenka Metcalf, who provides inspiration and instruction. Spring Sesshin was steady and strong, with 21 participants. Everyone did his or her part to facilitate deep inquiry into our true nature.

  • Lesson 2: What Is Zen?
    Lesson 2: What is Zen? Zen- is a Japanese word derived from the Chinese word “Chan” which has its roots from India from the Sanskrit word “Dhyana” or in Pali it is called “Jhana”. In Vietnam it is called “Thien”. Dhyana – refers to meditation or meditative states. Dhyana refers to a practice which helps one separate illusion from reality to help attain the ultimate goal of Moksha. Moksha means ultimate release, to completely let go. It is the highest state of a meditative practice. How do you get to the highest state of meditative practice? By doing it! Zen in Buddhism is a school in one of the three main sect of Buddhism: The Mahayana Sect. The teachings of Zen are said to be the most direct method of attaining awakening and liberation within one’s life time by one’s own effort as taught by the Buddha. Zen transmission is said to stem from the Flower Sermon of the Buddha in which during a discourse he suddenly held up a flower in his hand and was silent. All the disciples of the Buddha at that time was bewildered about the Buddha’s actions and wondered what he meant. Only Mahakassapa smiled. The Buddha then said Mahakassapa is the only worthy successor who understood his teachings. Mahakassapa became the first Patriarch of Zen in India. The profound wisdom of understanding without words was then passed on from teacher to student from one generation to the next, to spread the teachings of the Buddha. Zen came to China and prospered through the 28 th Patriarch of India, the Boddhidharma, who is also the first Patriarch of Zen in China.
