I will not look at another’s bowl intent on finding fault: a training to be observed

Life springs up in a garden when attention and care are given.


The Great Buddha teaches that meditation is the vehicle with which we can reach Enlightenment. For people in the modern world, meditation is a difficult concept to practice. No one seems to have the time for anything anymore. We’re all too busy doing everything to have time to do something so simple as meditation. Sitting down, stopping, and just existing, even while the world screams passed us seems so hard. How could anyone sit quietly with just themselves for 20 minutes.

It takes practice to meditate in the way that can bring peace and tranquility. But you don’t have to give up. They say 20 minutes of clear, uninterrupted meditation is best, but it would be easier to start with something shorter. That’s why 2 to Zen exists. Here, you can start off slow and short. Just 2 minutes of mindful, nature-based meditation to clear your mind and find a moment, or 2, of peace. Try it, and enjoy.
