A fun Zen site

  • http://www.dailyzen.com/

    :happy:


  • I didn't see them "all over that site." Guess I missed that...
    :)


  • Could you tell me what the Circle, Square, and Triangle mean?
    They are all over that site. I was just curious if they had a significance
    in the zen world or just for that site.

    Greetings John,

    Thank you for your interest in Daily Zen. These three shapes are
    traditional to Zen. You can read many explanations, but for myself I
    like to keep it quite simple and will share with you how I view them.
    The circle represents empty mind, unpressured mind, open mind; the
    square represents the grounded energy of the world, foundation, steady
    platform; the triangle represents the focus or concentrated mind of
    practice that is necessary to complete training.

    Hope this serves you well. It is my "feeling" for the symbols rather
    than a literal "official" explanation.

    Best of luck,
    The Monkess


  • Hmmm ... I only saw them in a couple of places, and I didn't even find an "articles" section, unless you are referring to the journals. Guess I'm just used to seeing those kinds of symbols connected with spiritual matters, as they do have spiritual connotations.


  • Look at the images on the site. Like in the articles and ecards.


  • sorry, your right...the journals.

    I noticed them on a lot of pictures. I am going to drop them a note to find out what they mean...keep you posted.


  • Hey, thanks, Samuraitora! I knew they were spiritual symbols, but I had no idea they were Zen symbols. :happy:


  • Not a problem...
