Sports and athletics can be a path in Zen, in concordance with daily practice of zazen meditation. You need to move with your spirit, not just with your body.

Nirvana and enlightenment exist just on the other side of your sensory perceptions and your thoughts.

A part of us resists all of this and wants to make it sound as if it's much too religious, an arbitrary thing that we have to do with our life. This is nonsense. This is the real fun.

Meditation is the short path to happiness. Meditation takes you beyond the desire-aversion operating system that offers very limited happiness and a great deal of frustration.

A time comes when you don't have to use meditation techniques anymore. You just sit down and you are nonexistence itself.

Have lots of plants in your house. Nature and plants understand something about stillness and silence. As you interact with the green world, you will find a peace will enter your life.

I don't know how much you know about Zen, but you'll know less when I'm done with you.
