Greetings. This is the Zen Buddhist Texts Web Page. In these pages you'll find texts about Zen Buddhism, Zen meditation (zazen) and other Zen sitting practices (samu, kinhin), sayings and talks (teisho) of Zen masters and Zen Buddhist ritual and chants of interest to both novices and those with years of practice. Please send me email at <snewton@io.com> if there is a link here that doesn't seem to work right.
In October, 1998 I relocated to Portland, OR. I've finally revamped these pages to reflect something of that change, de-emphasizing my old sitting groups. I'm now working on organizing the information about Portland Zen groups. I'd love to hear about any you know of.
