• Morning meditation — I Mo Ko. What is this?

  By Buddhism Now on 1 June 2025 • ( 0 )

  

  ‘I Mo Ko. I Mo Ko. What is this? What is this? When we practise hua t’ou meditation, we are simply trying to generate doubt: What is this? Sometimes the `this’ is crying, sometimes laughing, sometimes feeling depressed, sometimes being excited.’

  Jisu Sunim

• Morning meditation — If a major fear or worry arises.

  ‘If a major fear or worry arises, tell it you’ll give it attention later. Remarkably, this works. The mind, like a restless child, often settles once it knows it will be heard.’

  By Buddhism Now on 28 May 2025 • ( 0 )

  

  ‘The easiest and most harmful place for practitioners to find themselves in is the discursive mind — discrimination, analysing, categorising this and that, good and bad, here and now.’

  Jisu Sunim

• Morning meditation — A teaching stripped of depth may become a mere fashion.

  By Buddhism Now on 27 May 2025 • ( 0 )

  

  ‘A teaching stripped of depth may become a mere fashion, a temporary adornment rather than a transformative force. While these applications are not without merit, they fall short of the practice’s true purpose: liberation from Dukkha.’

• Morning meditation — It mostly requires a deliberate effort to identify oneself.

  By Buddhism Now on 26 May 2025 • ( 0 )

  

  ‘It mostly requires a deliberate effort to identify oneself with the joys and successes of others.’
