Suzuki School of Zen

The Suzuki School of Zen is an approach to Zen Buddhism inspired by the teachings of D.T. Suzuki, emphasizing meditation, mindfulness, and direct experience as paths to insight and inner peace. It encourages practitioners to cultivate present-moment awareness, often through seated meditation (zazen), to realize the interconnectedness of all things. The school aims to integrate Zen principles into daily life, fostering clarity, compassion, and peace of mind. It values experiential practice over dogma, guiding individuals to develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their place in the universe through disciplined meditation and attentive presence.
