The Essence of Zen-sation

The essence of Zen-sation as described in this website is aimed at expressing truth, goodness, and beauty, through the discovery of Self by looking at yourself and your interactions with others.

True understanding of Self is for me the pursuit of deep introspection and honesty to get to thorough understanding of the root cause of all individual actions. Being the center of oneself, the motives of existence - conscious or not conscious – drive the individual to live a life of quality. The definition of correct attitude will totally depend on the self-knowledge that the individual is willing to seek, so as to transcend himself for his own betterment.

The result of this active introspection, will have an impact on the attitude, and qualities like courtesy, compassion, morality and non-aggression. It will activate as well the true understanding of personal impact on others, and displaying the honorable attitude and proper behavior, maintaining composure and grace even in times of great stress and conflict.

As such a person with dignity will enable the attraction of a noble surrounding and a quality life.
Beauty both enhances life and stimulates the spirit. Within the scope of Zen-sation both truth and goodness are considered beautiful. Grace, simply common courtesy and respect for others are an essential part of the inner nobility that is being put forward in this page.

Zen-sation has the aim to stimulate the growth within each reader to enable the embodiment of grace and inner beauty, of reverence and courtesy.

You see, living a life of success improves the circumstances, however living a life with spirit, improves the man. When the spirit is weak, life becomes dull and mediocre. If the spirit is strong, the river will show a calm surface, hiding in the depth strong power. As such, a weak river can appear strong with lots of noise and turbulence, but underneath it is shallow and devoid of any real power.

Strict self-control and emotional stability are crucial for the development of one's spirit. True creativity is sister to the spirit and both are born of simplicity. They are not a product of knowledge, but surface only when the quieted mind is empty and the intuitive thoughts are allowed. It allows to move into a state of Mushin - No Mind, which is a state where the remnants of thoughts are eliminated and only pure thought remains. Zen-sation occurs. The protective layers of the ego are then released and the true self is revealed, awakening us from the "dream-of-life’, providing us real insight into the ultimate state of being.
