Madison Zen Center

"How vast is the heaven of boundless samadhi!
How bright and transparent the moonlight of wisdom!
What is there outside us,
what is there we lack?
Nirvana is openly shown to our eyes.
This earth where we stand is the pure lotus land,
and this very body—the body of Buddha."
—Master Hakuin's Chant in Praise of Zazen (Zazen Wasan)
