WELCOME TO DARWIN ZEN BUDDHIST MEDITATION GROUP

Zen is a way of being in the world. Zen is living from the truth of what we are,
from no separation, in each and every moment, so that we find peace,
freedom and joy within every aspect of our life.

WHAT DO WE DO IN ZEN?

Nothing

Zen is a way of being. There is no-self and no-one doing anything. Just complete fulfillment in this moment. Needing nothing. Just being this. Just resting as this moment.

In Zen this nothing, this no-self, contains everything. Absolutely nothing is left out. It’s all of it. With the self out of the way nothing is separate, Everything is the True Self, the One Body, so compassion and love arise for all that is. Whether it is the homeless, the sick, (including our ailing planet) the oppressed. The crying child, the angry colleague, the disappointed friend or our own so called failings. Nothing is left out and from no-self an appropriate response arises to love and to serve whatever is needed.
