If you came looking for a teacher, a guru, or a method — there is none.
Zen does not teach awakening as a goal, nor does it teach reaching nirvana.
Zen does not teach silence, nor self-improvement.
It simply invites you to be aware of what is happening:
your fears,
your disappointments,
your loves,
your joys,
your sorrows.
Just see.
Just observe.
Just this.
