I am a 65 year old Humanistic Psychologist, a Buddhist Priest, a Zen Master, and a Minister of Faith Body. Over the last 30 years, it has been my joyful and passionate calling to provide somatic training and growth counseling in Applied Meditation Therapy®, lead Zen meditation practice groups in California and Hawaii, and give public talks and bodymind skill workshops on living meditation as the wisdoming process of everyday life.

       In 1996, I created ZenDoctor.Com to promote greater public awareness of Applied Meditation Psychology and to globally extend my humanistic teachings as a Psychologist and a Zen Roshi to the global Internet community. Also, since the creation of my website, I have been providing Telephone & Web Video Counseling & Training to people worldwide. While working on my book publication, I continue to write articles in Europe and America on spiritual growth, optimum wellness, behavioral wisdom, compassionate action and peak human embodiment.

      As an extension of my worldwide teaching and counseling, I am happy to introduce this spiritual network community where people from all around the world can learn more about living enlightenment and the Way of wisdoming meditation while sharing fellowship, inspiration, insight, and understanding.

      This Online Community is a safe place where you can openly dialogue about your spiritual and meditation life journey. Here, you can support each other by practicing sincerity and authenticity as you express your thoughts and feelings on living meditation, mindfulness, faith body, and the farther reaches of human nature.

      I encourage you to share your experiences, comments, and questions with integrity, humility and beginner's heartmind, for these are the true hallmarks of your Only Moment Body™ wisdoming before attainment or gain.

      The fundamental purpose of this online community is to provide a contained refuge and a safe haven for spiritual fellowship and honest inner journeying. As such, it is not an appropriate space to market or advertise products or other websites and social networks with embedded audios, videos, photo albums, or rss feed aggregators.

      I appreciate everyone honoring these parameters so that together we can nourish and sustain the deep inner refuge and upright spiritual container that this online community represents.

An important part of our meditation life practice is to nourish an intimate, honest, and wondrous Way of observing things as they are. Then we are completely free to think about things with a curious, spacious and magnanimous mind.

Our Way is to observe and think about things without reinforcing prejudice, stagnation or rigidity. This means that we practice having a magnanimous mind that is soft and always open enough to see things as they are and to understand things as IT is.

When our mind is magnanimous, soft, and open it can also be called immovable mind because it does not stick to any thing that arises or close off to any use of language or any given direction of understanding through thinking or non-thinking. The embodied practice of this kind of magnanimous and immovable mind liberates us to think with sincerity, clarity, flexibility, integrity and creativity.

In our Way of meditation life practice, we say that our faculty of magnanimous mind and our spacious way of not-knowing are both stable and grounded. They are stable and grounded because they are soft and responsive to all things as they arise while being passionately curious and open to all directions of experiencing, languaging, thinking and non-thinking.

Just to see and to be ready to see things with a magnanimous mind is our practice of living meditation. If we are prepared to see and understand with magnanimity, there is no need to make any extra effort in directing our thinking.

Extra effort means to manipulate or direct our thinking in order to validate a one-sided position, a prejudice or prejudgment, a biased perception, a rationalization or an exclusive belief. When our ego-self attaches to an exclusive belief, our way of thinking becomes bound or restricted by that belief. This means that our thinking is directed more by the belief rather than our open and free magnanimous mind.

We must remember that it is the openness and readiness of our magnanimous mind that is bright wisdoming itself. This openness and readiness becomes the process of wisdoming in our thinking. By wisdoming, I do not mean our usual ego-self thinking, accumulated knowledge or something learned by reading and studying. Wisdoming is the effortless and grace-full thinking that naturally arises from our practice of resting in non-thinking, arousing bright wakefulness and alertness, and nourishing our passionate readiness to see beings and things with a spacious and magnanimous mind.

Our Way of witnessing, observing, and thinking with a magnanimous mind is grounded in our daily practice of being in the Core of our Only Moment Body. The point of our daily practice in relationship to our thinking faculty is to rest in our Moment Body Core, to be ready to intimately observe or witness things as they arise, and to freely and openly think about things with a magnanimous and spacious Way of Mind. This can be called thinking with our Big Mind or thinking with the Innate Wisdom of our Only Moment Body.
