The historical roots go back to India, where the initial concept of zero was represented by the bindu or dot, the intrinsic spirit-life seed within all reality. This later evolved into the circle or Sunya and then to the Buddhist paradoxical idea of Emptiness or Sunyata - the ‘empty’ (sunya) that is completely ‘full’ (ta)… https://ensomeditation.org/the-enso-journal daily 0.75 2025-02-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/1623617707638-WLNULQ1TJP4FSOVQW0XR/Ox+herding+picture+1.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/4fb02b26-a0b5-4c6c-9ea5-e890b7759c09/Zen+Ox+herding+Picture2.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/de1853de-dd3a-4fd8-87b6-1ac83945f1fc/Zen+Ox+herding+Picture3.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/69f3436f-d9fd-46ff-b5b2-67e269e8e25d/Merton+and+Suzuki+final.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/1d8a75f8-1fc2-4e7d-89d0-a992ba253ae7/Merton+The+Zen+Koan+cover+-+good.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/ff7ffd58-2eef-428b-ad08-1892ca86b35d/Merton+Koan+page+one.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/d9e04e6e-f459-46df-b596-81f1da04f8ce/Buddha+hand+Picture1.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/f1b45c36-1a1c-4d4d-ac22-ff631a263426/tree+yosemite.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/5cfc6f3d-28c9-430d-b857-d5baf983d130/Woman+Kens_piece_1.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/6b034e56-3135-4dae-91bc-c7e83cefc9d3/Korean+War+memorial+Kens_piece_2.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/8844c0bc-7fcd-48c6-89bc-50a5d9a84bc0/IMG_3219-2.jpg The Enso Journal https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/1728539517009-HOM8A6SRUO1OPOXAF0K6/Medley_KS_3_Yak_.jpg The Enso Journal https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/8844c0bc-7fcd-48c6-89bc-50a5d9a84bc0/IMG_3219-2.jpg The Enso Journal https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/1728539517009-HOM8A6SRUO1OPOXAF0K6/Medley_KS_3_Yak_.jpg The Enso Journal https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg The Enso Journal https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847767761-J2M1HI20BXRQ9XCR0HUD/Large+JPG-Aro+Ha_0387.jpg The Enso Journal https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/1725827314983-ICBQ4T4B66JGMYBIHF0O/IMG_0033.jpeg The Enso Journal https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/5cfc6f3d-28c9-430d-b857-d5baf983d130/Woman+Kens_piece_1.jpg The Enso Journal https://ensomeditation.org/the-enso-journal/enso-peace-stupa monthly 0.5 2025-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/79cdeb36-3584-40ea-b7b9-5d12ef65fcb1/image-3.png The Enso Journal -

It is exemplified in the life of the Zen hermit Ryokan. (1758-1831) Ryokan’s utter simplicity and directness point us to a Zen practice that is unaffected by exterior forms and disciplines, into a natural world of direct experience: (quoted from ‘One Robe, One Bowl’ translation by John Stevens) Standing alone beneath a solitary pine; Quickly the time passes. Overhead the endless sky- Who can I call to join me on this path? -- Fresh morning snow in front of the shrine. The trees! Are they white with peach blossoms Or white with snow? The children and I joyfully throw snowballs! -- In my bowl violets and dandelions are mixed Together with the Buddhas of the three worlds. -- Oh that my priests robes were wide enough To gather up all the suffering people In this floating world In our modern world of hyper vigilance and demanding effort, Ryokan points to an effortlessness and direct simplicity that embraces the wonderment of the present moment and within this present moment is wabi sabi ...the Enso that is NO Enso. ‘Wabi’ means a languishing forlornness liberated from the material world, combined with the word ‘sabi’ which is a equivalent of the Buddhist concept of ‘mujo’ or ‘anitya’, the impermanence and transience of all life and things. ‘Wabi Sabi’ holds a paradoxical view of life that deeply draws in the combined elements of both yearning for a deeply awakened reality, yet simultaneously facing the presence and beauty of the actual transient world within and around one. Japanese art has expressed this deep non-dual feeling throughout its history in ceramics, calligraphy, Zen gardens, flower arranging, as well as poetry, the ritual of the tea ceremony etc. Zen life itself in the Japanese monastic setting is a form created to give expression to the wabi sabi of human life. The spare minimalism of its form is designed to leave no space for the self-filled ‘I’ to remain. In current modernity, however, the cultural bias of imitation often enough falls into fabricating a contrived Zen disguise. It is, as if, shaving one’s head or wearing black robes, sitting for long periods in a certain posture or poring over the lines of Buddhist sutras or chanting them are in themselves something ‘Zen’. This condition at times also arises in other Buddhist traditions as they attempt to grow in new Western soil lacking their original deeper cultural support and inner breath. Chanting mantras, bowing repeatedly, counting breaths, scanning the body, are all potential methods for awakening and ‘mindfulness’ (and ‘mindlessness’). Yet, all too often lead one astray when perceived and attached to as other than skillful means, becoming added obstacles and constructs, instead of new avenues through which to know and go beyond oneself. Shoji Hamada in his book “The Unknown Craftsman” describes clearly: “What, then, is enlightenment? It is the state of being free from all duality. Sometimes the term ‘Oneness’ is used, but ‘Non-dual Entirety’ (funi) is a more satisfactory term because Oneness is likely to be construed as the opposite of duality and hence understood in relative terms. Buddha is the name applied to a person who has achieved this Non-duality...The Undifferentiated, the Non-dual, is assumed to be the inherent nature of man; all Buddhist discipline, therefore, has as its goal the achievement of this Non-dual Entirety.” (TUC p. 128) Another way of speaking of this Non-duality is as ‘suchness’ or ‘thusness’, (Sanskri: tathatha, Japanese: shinnyo) of wabi sabi: To be alone It is of a color that Cannot be named: This mountain where cedars rise Into the autumn dusk -Jakuren 12th century So, Enso Zen or Wabi Sabi Zen, is a Zen of pure natural wonderment embracing the world ‘as it is’ with complete abandonment of ‘self’. As the Zen master Takuan clarifies the inner process in Zen practice: “first one must seek to control the mind, but ultimately of the mind it is only to be let go….” This ‘mind that is let go’ is the Enso Mind, the mind of pure wonderment and thusness. To embrace and be embraced by this presence-ing, moment after moment, is the practice of Enso Zen. https://ensomeditation.org/contact-us daily 0.75 2025-09-22 https://ensomeditation.org/schedule daily

Meditation Practice - Sitting Meditation Posture When seated, neither to the left nor the right, forward nor backward. When viewed from the side, your ears and shoulders should be in a straight line and from the front, your nose will be in a straight line with your navel. Place your tongue against the roof of your mouth and maintain your lips closed. This helps seal the flowing of subtle energies during meditation. Your legs can be in full or half lotus position, a kneeling position (seza) with cushion or bench to sit on or a seated in a chair, all depending on ones flexibility. Your eyes should be slightly open with a broad 180 degree gaze. Your breathing should be silent and soft through the nose. Maintain your awareness intimately unified with this body/breath/posture. https://ensomeditation.org/virtual-zendo daily 0.75 2021-06-16 https://ensomeditation.org/library daily 0.75 2024-10-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/b683efed-168f-4630-910c-304af874c4f1/Cup+%281%29.jpg https://ensomeditation.org/enso-valley-sanctuary daily 0.75 2024-10-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/1d511f54-042f-46c7-a69d-efe1b64bea2f/IMG_9878.jpg Enso Valley Sanctuary Meditation garden area has begun… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/79f7352c-39cd-4b3f-be98-3f8709c21079/IMG_3021.jpg Enso Valley Sanctuary Enso Valley Sanctuary Zendo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/d8bb5e30-1ac7-49ad-8c2b-92c0e4752e13/IMG_2529+%282%29.jpg Enso Valley Sanctuary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/e06ecb95-f3ba-4224-9577-1acd5e09aaa2/IMG_2605.jpg Enso Valley Sanctuary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/5e13e4a6-de38-4a88-964a-1b8b91d4259b/IMG_2434.jpg Enso Valley Sanctuary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/47a6bedd-7ef5-4fdf-bde9-49614e223691/IMG_3812.jpg Enso Valley Sanctuary https://ensomeditation.org/rsvp-3 daily 0.75 2022-07-12 https://ensomeditation.org/about-3 daily 0.75 2022-07-12 https://ensomeditation.org/general-1 daily 0.75 2022-07-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847902870-ZOUR0EX0L2QSQNRC1SP2/image-asset.jpeg https://ensomeditation.org/residential-stays daily 0.75 2022-07-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed9e7c120cbd9238cf57fac/049db823-8389-4718-a99d-ba0974813924/waterfall.jpeg https://ensomeditation.org/home-1 daily 1.0 2024-09-08 https://ensomeditation.org/new-page-1 daily 0.75 2025-02-02
