Zen Meditation Easy Tutorial for Clarity and Focus - 10 Minutes

- In today's video I will introduce the simple method of zazen meditation. There is a phrase in Japanese: "KENZEN-NO-ICHIMI". It means ONENESS of sword and mind. This is achieved through meditation and samurai sword training. This is the foundation of the Kaz Method. Several years ago I trained at a Zen temple. There, I passed the first Zen KOAN test. In order to pass this test, you need to escape from DICHOTOMY type of thinking. You need to go beyond logic. It is an understanding that comes through the unification of mind, body and heart. I know this is a very difficult concept. Don't try to understand it. Instead, I want you to FEEL it. I teach this to artists and it helps them with their performance. But it is useful for EVERYONE. OK, let's begin!
I hope you enjoyed this demonstration. If you did please hit the thumbs up!

The Stillness in his body is absolutely insane. First time trying this I found myself very uncomfortable and readjusting only once. I have a huge respect for people that can do this.
Its gradually getting better！
But please don't do too much if it's uncomfortable.
Nice. Thank you.
I don't normally comment on video's. However I really enjoyed learning this meditation. I'm going to continue to watch you! I did have a question, do you have any suggestion on literature (books or reading) about the way of the samurai? I would love to learn more of the self discipline to become a better me to help my community. What would you recommend?
Thank you!
Thank you for your messege!

どういたしまして🙏
Hey , I have a question. I’ll highly appreciate if you’ll drop your thought about it . While meditating I see color waves (purple this time ) , is it a common thing ? Thanks 🙏
Hi, Andrew,
No problem if you saw the color. when you watched something, please don't put in another mind. just concentrate in your breath. It's important thing is concentrate more profound.
You see color waves? :o thats interesting.
Which martial art do you use?
And can you explain something about Ninjutsu?
ninja's are some brats. he cant explain becauase ninjutsu is about assasinating, not fight.
@@Bahadrist What makes you think shinobis did not know sword arts?
Hi , for meditation, is pyramid necessary? Please reply...
It's better to make it. but it's ok if it's difficult.
I will explain another way of meditation in my live stream video. we are doing meditation on the livestream before we train and I'm alwayg explaining some of important point when we do meditation. So please check each livestream video's

@@SAMURAIKAZARTS ok
Thanks a lot Sensei. But what about Seiza? It is appropriate for meditation?
Seiza is How to sit when you do traditional Japanese culture, Japanese sword martialarts etc.. But it's not proper to do it for meditation. Although sometime do it with meditation as easy way.
when I was in WTF (World Tae Kwando Federation) my dojang would have us sit seiza well im guessing not fully seiza but we did bend our knees and have them on the floor like seiza
Supposed to "make no valley nor mountain with your thumbs" but hey what do i know. 🤷♂️🤭🙈
Tanjiro-Kun! Doko desu ka!?
Question: Is it okay to meditate to peaceful music, sounds?
Or is concentration better meditating without any noise?
It's ok to meditate with music as healing meditation.
Ｂut It's not zen meditation.
Zen meditation just focus only your breath.
Don't any focus sound, image, think, etc.. If you do it. But if you want to meditate with music. It's ok. There are variety of how to meditation.
@@SAMURAIKAZARTS arigatou.
@@SAMURAIKAZARTS IT is really hard to focus when you are filled with bloodust of anger and as you know.. America has increased violence towards being asian american.
I dont think meditating can help me for how I feel now.
@@hmuphilly9129 it's ok to feel....just be aware of it and observe it
remember, they are just thoughts and feelings...you decide how you react to them
BIG TOE of left foot shows high stress in leg.
however, still a good video
My legs can't do that
You don't need to do like that. You can do using chair.
Thank you very much for the video
