| Ch’an or Zen is the outcome of meditation.
There are two U5“right” or “highest” purposes of Ch’an. The first purpose is to achieve“Dhyana”. Dhyana is a combination of relaxation, concentration and calmness or tranquility. The second purpose is, using your very composed and tranquil mind, to observe clearly all the dharmas or phenomena externally and internally. As an outcome of Dhyana, you will be able to observe these phenomena very clearly because your“mental mirror”is very clear—for there are no more disturbances to veil it. Out of these observations will come Transcendental Wisdom.
Relaxation and Concentration are the two most fundamental techniques in medi-tation. Since our Mind is disturbed by anxiety, we need to quiet it by getting to the opposite of it, i.e, Relaxation. Also, because our mind is always wandering at large, we need to curb it by concentration, so that we do not waste or misuse our energy. |
