Monday Zen

I've been a reading a little bit about British Zen philosopher Alan Wilson Watts. Here's some food for thought:


“The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.” - Alan Wilson Watts, The Culture of Counter-Culture


“Zen does not confuse spirituality with thinking about God while one is peeling potatoes. Zen spirituality is just to peel the potatoes.” - Alan Wilson Watts


Remember to be present today.
