The music is a distraction to the message.

Zen is very, very difficult to explain in words but this guys does it quite well. If the music is distracting, don't judge it. Don't call it distracting. Just let it go by.

funny how it says music is distracting. the more you try to say let it go, the more you think about it lol.

He said very sweetly; "be a Mensch".... If you practice meditation it will help. God Bless you..

@zzinglish53 I agree - the "boom-chang" music is distracting, but I don't really mind because Eshin John Godfrey (Hoju Osho) is very eloquently telling it like it is in his discourse on zazen. What he says, and shows us, is right on the mark!

@godislove633 ya we should definitely stick to worshipping an ancient symbol used for torture (cross) because a carpenter that started a blasphemic cult died on one and said outrageous things that could only be backed up by "faith"

[godislove633]

You forgot to say one more thing that Buddhism is not: its not going to save your soul. You are connecting with a false sense of well being and giving power to misleading spirits over your life, mind and more importantly your soul.

Buddha was in search of the truth but Jesus said: I am the way the TRUTH and the life.

One truth alone will set you free from anything, his name is Jesus Christ, Yeshua.

Great video!

[rainbowaon]

the music is a distraction to the message, the message is a distraction to the music, and the consciousness is a distraction to the distraction! lmao

@kurtizzyflush Re-reading my year old comment I don't see anything like "the music makes you go on etc." as you did, but I'd be glad to learn meditation if perhaps you are accepting trainees... Have you sat in a zendo where they play music like this - "all mystical and shit?" Real distraction? TV! They distract...

Namaste'

[kurtizzyflush]

@misterdirtyknees Zen has been explained in words a million times. "Stop and smell the roses."It's a simple as looking at your cat's face and appreciating how much he loves you and you love him. People want to make it all mystical and shit so they can feel superior. We have our own Zen here in the west. Eastern culture didn't invent Zen. It was already there. "The only Zen you'll find on a mountain top is the Zen you bring with you."

@zzinglish53 I know it's been a year but I hope someone has muted you. You need to learn meditation cuz you are a whiner! This music makes you go on and on? What do real distractions do to you?
