Saijo Zen (Zen)

Description

After satori has been experienced it is fulfilled by this last stage in zazen. With body relaxed and mind tranquil, the clarity and strength achieved in conscious awareness is taken deeper into the meditation. The exercise may be referred to as 'just sitting' in a state of great alertness (harikitte), with no sense of hurry or striving (nombiri), in complete steadiness of purpose (dosshiri) and totally withdrawn from the senses (rinzen).
