Koun Franz on Keizan Zenji's "Zazen Yojinki"

Koun Franz

Why had I never come across this series of posts before? Stumbled today across six posts from Koun Franz on an important text by co-founder of the Soto Zen school, Keizan Jokin Zenji, called the Zazen Yojinki ("Notes on what to be aware of in Zazen").

The posts (and the talk it was based on) give some context to Keizan's teaching and then go on to discuss the text in detail, with some wonderful reflections from a very experienced Zen teacher and meditator. Highly recommended! Links to the posts are below:
