Coffee Question

How do you meditate?

Holding a steaming mug of coffee while breathing in the ethereal essence and aroma of the coffee?

Sitting quietly, clearing your mind of all thoughts?

Creatively visualizing on a pleasant image?

Actively journeying within your mind and traveling through the thoughts and images that arise?

There are so many ways to meditate. How do you like to meditate?

Meditate for Earth

Next Saturday, March 28th, at 8:30 P.M., millions of people everywhere around the world are turning off their lights for one
hour to Vote for Earth, and to help bring attention and mindful awareness to the
global warming crisis.

Zen carries with it a respect for all of life;
we can all respect the Earth by turning off our lights for one hour. I'll
be lighting a few candles, drinking some Zen coffee, and meditating during this hour, sending love vibes and healing to the Earth.
