Crescent Zafus :: Forest Green Crescent Zafu

Forest Green Crescent Zafu

You'll love this forest green crescent zafu, or Zen meditation cushion in your personal meditation practice. One of the tactics used in Zen Meditation to bring about enlightenment and separate the practitioner from the stresses and desires of the outside world is the use of koans. A koan is a kind of riddle or statement that does not have a logical answer or does not make logical sense. The most famous koan is probably, "When two hands clap, there is a sound. What is the sound of one hand clapping?" This obviously makes no logical sense, because one hand cannot clap, so it is futile to analyze the question rationally. Another famous koan is the statement, "If you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him". Instead, the goal of the koan is to shock the person meditating and make him or her abandon logical thought and rationality and look at the world in a new way. This way, Zen Buddhists, believe, one can move his or her mind from this world to a higher plane of existence and thereby work to achieve enlightenment. With our Forest Green Crescent Zafu, you can discover for yourself the benefits of meditation. It can also double as a comfortable pillow or seat. Sturdily made by practicing Buddhist craftsmen, our Zafus are sure to provide you many years of comfort on your own path to enlightenment.
