Other
I lived in a Zen Temple in 1982 in Korea. I traveled closely with Dae Soen Sa Nim, who can be seen here.
This is not my way, but I know about these things. I pray regularly. I have studied Gestalt Psychology, breath work, Gurdjieff, done The Landmark Forum’s entire Curriculum for Living. Religions will sometimes fight over whose god is whose, but its really very simple. One taste, one place, one world, one heart.
