Organized by Tricycle magazine, a Buddhist magazine, The Big Sit is the second of its kind. What is it? It is a commitment, a retreat, for people, Buddhist or not, to sit in mediation, take or retake the Bodhisattva vows, listen to lectures, Zen in nature this time, and to read/study Dogen’s Genjokoan.
I retook my vows, shaved my head and plan to take my practice seriously again. A saying goes something like this:
It is easier to head to a secluded spot to meditate for years than it is to stay within the chaos of life and do the same.
