How can one discover truth within life, death, and the everyday moments of existence?
📝ONGO's Reflection
When I first opened the teachings of the Zen master Dogen, I realized that enlightenment lies not on some distant mountain, but right here, in the daily act of eating rice and drinking tea. His insight that time and being are not separate halts my steps, which had endlessly chased only the future. The simple yet profound philosophy that zazen (seated meditation) is itself enlightenment strikes deep in my heart.
