Death. We view death, as influenced by our upbringing. Death. The end. Game over. If we were to take Death in a different angle of perspective, such as an idea...as they say 'Ideas can never die'. And if we were apply this idea to ourselves, the world would be significantly different. An idea can be represented by various embodiment's and forms of it, however, these are just representation, and not the essence of the idea itself. These representations of an idea can be destroyed, but the idea can never perish. If we view our bodies, thoughts; our entire world to be a representation of our 'idea', then life is far different. The idea being that, we are energy, we are an idea. If destroyed, the idea remains - Energy cannot be destroyed. An idea, an energy is not defined or segregated into different segments...everything is one. All connected. All the same. Unity. So in this perspective, Death isn't so bad, now is it?

Suggest Revision: Take a minute. Pause. Stop doing, and simply be...This moment. Think, here, now. This moment will never occur again. This moment is unlike any other, and you are of its essence. You are not a river, but a pond. A still, relaxed pond. You are not late for anything, nor due to anyone...You are perfect. Look to your right, what do you see? Look to your left. Close your eyes, and breathe through your nose...count each breath, for nothing else matters but now, here, you. This is life, and you need not worry, for you are exactly where you need to be.

Zen is basically the name given to the Mahayana school of Buddhism. It is derived from the Sanskrit word “dhyana” which means to meditate. Zen believes that it is mandatory to experience wisdom in order to attain salvation and enlightenment. Theory and its abundant knowledge won’t guide you to enlightenment. The sure-shot path that can aid you in attaining enlightenment is the path of mediation or the dharma practise. According to Matthew Sweet, “There are things that I value now that I didn't when I first went over there, like Zen Buddhism, which has become part of my life over the last couple years.” Zen was founded as a distinct school of Buddhism in China in the 7th century. Then, it gradually made way and was founded in Vietnam, Korea and Japan. Zen’s establishment is said credited to Bodhi dharma, the South Indian prince who had transformed himself into a monk. In the words of John Bradshaw, “Children are natural Zen masters; their world is brand new in each and every moment.”
