I watch this video and I realize something: Fifty years ago, to learn this man's wisdom, I would have had to travel to Japan, make my way to Sogen-ji zen monastery, and probably learn Japanese in order to understand well enough to learn.

Today? This good man sits in front of a camera and, thanks to the Internet, YouTube and closed-captioned translation, the whole world can learn from him.

New technology and old wisdom. Heck of a combination, isn't it?

You are one of those fake buddhists that have turned buddhism into a religion. Gautama buddha simply taught a way how to free yourself from dukkha. dukkha is basically dissatisfaction, though this is a rough translation. HE never said anything about chakra bullshit because even if it is true it does not relate to the central problem of dukkha. this is why buddhism doesnt take a view on the existence of the soul, because it DOESNT MATTER. read a book on true dharma, steve hagen isnt bad.

Warning: Do not listen to this with ear phones! I just lost my sense of hearing from the ding of the bell at the introduction.

Try the kneeling posture, also known as seiza, sit on a pillow between your legs, preferably a zafu to get enough height. There is also the Burmese posture.
