What is Zen?

What reply do you want?

In these pages I will give you the opportunity to explore the idea of ZEN.

Trying to explain ZEN would be like trying to explain the many eskimo words for snow to a child from Africa who has never met the concept of frozen water

Or to explain the difference between red and yellow to a person who has been blind from birth.


Zen

Instead, I will give you the opportunity to see various things, some of which may be new to you.

At the end, when you feel what these things have in common you will know what ZEN is.

Don't try and find it - it will find you.
