		<description>Hey bakunin. Yes, this little blog never did quite become what I set out to make it, because I found Zen incredibly difficult to write about. 

I actually find the Theravadin traditions of Buddhism fascinating, and wouldn&#039;t mind experiencing practice in this way at some point in the future.

Thank you for the well-wishes, and all the best to you as well.</description>

		<description>The koan you&#039;ve picked is quite confusing (but which koan isn&#039;t?). I&#039;ve been practicing Zen on and off for about 15 years now, and I&#039;ve always preferred facing the wall :)

Maybe the Buddhism thing is also what attracts me to Thai culture, but, as you maybe know, Zen is a world apart from the Thai variant.

Anyway, just wanted to stop by and wish you all the best with your Zen practice and the upcoming July tadoku contest! :)</description>
