Thanks again to Chetak, Joey and the rest of the committee and members of the University of Northampton Meditation Society for their invitation to run an introductory session on Zen meditation last Thursday. This was part of a series of sessions for "Meditation March", a chance to commit to practising regularly for the month of March.
Rather than delving into too much of the arcane and theatrical, this time we just did some "plain" zazen - OK, perhaps a bit of kin-hin and the Four Vows thrown in, but otherwise just plain old zazen.
It was a dark and stormy night... really! With the snow building up around the county, I was very impressed that we had fourteen people turn up to give it a go, and we had a chance for an interesting chat at the end.
Once again, I really enjoyed my visit, the MedSoc aways gives a warm and attentive welcome (as you'd hope!), and I'm already looking forward to the next one.
Chetak took some photos of the day - a brief selection below...
