Ruth Ozeki Quotes

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ZAZEN First Of All, You Have To Sit Down, Which You're Probably Already Doing. The Traditional Way Is To Sit On A Zafu Cushion On The Floor With Your Legs Crossed, But You Can Sit On A Chair If You Want To. The Important Thing Is Just To Have Good Posture And Not To Slouch Or Lean On Anything. Now You Can Put Your Hands In Your Lap And Kind Of Stack Them Up, So That The Back Of Your Left Hand Is On The Palm Of Your Right Hand, And Your Thumb Tips Come Around And Meet On Top, Making A Little Round Circle. The Place Where Your Thumbs Touch Should Line Up With Your Bellybutton. Jiko Says This Way Of Holding Your Hands Is Called Hokkai Jo-in,113 And It Symbolizes The Whole Cosmic Universe, Which You Are Holding On Your Lap Like A Great Big Beautiful Egg.
