Introduction to Zen meditation I

Have you ever wondered how silence and stillness can open the doors to a deep inner transformation?? Zen Buddhism is a way that invites us to discover our original nature through direct experience. This course offers you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the essence of Zen, an ancient tradition that combines the simplicity of seated meditation (zazen) with a deep spiritual teaching.

Throughout this course, we will explore the Satipatthana Sutta, a fundamental text that guides us in paying full attention to our body, sensations, mind and phenomena. You will learn how to apply these teachings in your daily practice, along with the formal aspects of zazen, the art of sitting quietly and being fully present. Besides, you will enter the zen ceremonies, moments of connection that connect us with the legacy of our ancestors, community spirit and commitment to the path of bodhisattva.

This course is not only a theoretical gateway to Zen, but an invitation to experience its depth, both in stillness and in action. Welcome to a spiritual practice that unites the body, mind and heart.
