- 소개/요약There is a common preconception that Zen practice is to stop the thinking, however, that is not true. In the book Training in Compassion, Zen teacher Norman Fischer described spiritual practice changes our minds. We can begin to notice our unsuccessful repetitive patterns of thinking and feeling. We can begin to see their consequences. We can begin to cultivate new ways of thinking, feeling, speaking and acting. Our basic patterns over time will be different as we train our minds with intentional techniques and practices, and this will influence our relationships and our sense of ourselves and the world. Furthermore, there is no “goal” in meditation. We simply meditate. Letting go of thoughts means that we do not get carried away by our thoughts. When we recognize that we are getting snared by the story line, we gently guide ourselves back to the breath. That is letting go of thought, no goal, just a continuous practice.
