Roland asked:


I am currently using a yoga mat and I sit on a block to practice my Zen meditation. I read that it will be more beneficial to buy a Cushion(Zabuton)
I wonder if that will make a big difference for me?

How do I do zen meditation by myself in my home?
I used to do it in a zen center, but I can’t really afford to drive back and forth to a zen center. Can I just sit zazen on my couch or what? I have a Buddha and incense, should I make an alter or what?

If you are going to say something involving how I should go to jesus or something, please just don’t answer.

For example, Zen meditation, or Mantra meditation.

Which ones do you think are best?
Do the different styles invoke different feelings or effects?

Roland asked:


When you meditate using Yoga what do you do to meditate? I am talking about relaxing Yoga like breathing Yoga.

And with the Zen meditation do you follow the samething? Or you are counting your breathing etc?

Please give me example and breathing ratio.

Thank you.
