Zen Sit

I did my first Zen sit tonight at the First Unitarian Church in Newton. Like my free personal training session I'm doing tomorrow, this is something I've put off for a long time. It was difficult, but it also felt very familiar to me, and frankly I enjoyed a couple hours of quiet. There appears to be an active, though far flung Buddhist community here in the northeast, and I'm lucky to have a local group led by our minister James Ford, whose blog Monkey Mind just got nominated for a blogsiattva (who knew!) award.

He always has interesting things to say so please take a look.
