I practice Chan, Chinese Zen. The Chan temple was just the Buddhist centre closest to me, but I’ve never regretted the choice. I like the bodhisattva vows, and appreciate the focus on meditation. I’m also a fan of Chinese culture, and I like the traditions of Chan more than Japanese Zen. What about you?
I study and practice Chan as well. I’ve been interested in lots of different forms of buddhism over the years, but Chan is for sure my cup of tea! If you’re interested i started a little Chan community, although we are also open to posts on Seon, Thien, and Zen. It’s at zen.ee Thanks for your post!
