Compassion is not an ideal to strive for but rather the only ground for "human-being-ness".  Until one gives up all ideas of "who you are suppose to be", and start loving who you really are, there are no possibilities for real happiness or well-being or for that matter, the world to ever change.  Think of it!  Love yourself as you really are - Change the World!

We are a diverse community of Contemplative Zen Monks, founded in 1985 by our brother, the Abbot Seijaku Roshi. Inspired by a monastic tradition reaching back centuries, and supported by men and women from all walks of life, we are shaped by the teachings of the Buddhadharma, the Mystical Torah, the Rule of Saint Benedict, and the Gospels. Jizo-an Zen Community, The Zen Society, is a 501c3 non-profit organization. https://www.jizo-an.org
