01
Mindfulness
正念與禪修
Sit with the breath. Walk with the mountain path. Let sunrise and sunset become teachers of presence—not ideas about life, but life itself, moment by moment.
Exploring the journey within

still point
The Still Point · 禪路
Still Q is a quiet home for Zen-inspired practice: mindfulness in the body of nature, philosophy that softens the grip of the self, and a path of awakening that ends where it began—already home.
What we explore
Four doors into the same room
Drawn from the Still Point Zen 禪路 path—each practice points back to one thing: the quiet center that was never missing.
02
Zen philosophy
禪宗哲學
Wu wei, the mirror mind, impermanence, and non-striving. Nature speaks these teachings without words: lake, waterfall, temple, winding road.
03
Awakening
靈性覺醒
A journey that begins in beginner’s mind, climbs through trial and insight, and returns home changed—yet discovering you never truly left.
04
Nature as teacher
自然為師
Snow peaks, alpine lakes, golden dusk. The landscape does not cling, does not hurry. In its silence, the Dharma shows itself.
“True peace is not in grasping the sunset, but in becoming the stillness that can beautifully receive it and let it go.”
真正的平靜不在於抓住落日，而在於成為那能優美地接納它、並讓它離去的靜止。

Reflections
Teachings from the landscape
Contemplations inspired by Still Point Zen—where mountain, lake, and path become maps of the mind.

The Mirror of One Mind
一心之鏡
When undisturbed, the still lake becomes a flawless mirror— reflecting peaks and sky with absolute fidelity, yet holding nothing. Sit like this lake, and the universe reveals itself exactly as it is.
Refuge
Temple in the Mountain
山心藏寺
Awakening does not require grand isolation. True refuge is found when we allow ourselves to be held exactly where we are.
Journey
Endless Path of Return
無盡的歸途
The winding road is not a detour—it is the way itself. True arrival is knowing you have never left home.
Wu wei
Silent Carving of Stillness
靜默的雕琢
Water does not force, yet nothing withstands its patient flow. Transformation arises from aligning with the present.
Practice
A simple place to sit
No performance. No perfect posture required. Choose a duration, settle the body, and rest attention on the breath—returning gently whenever the mind wanders.
Open the sitting spaceThe Path of the Still Point
A year of awakening
Inspired by The Path of the Still Point: A Year of the Horse Awakening—from the village edge into the mountains, through trial and light, and home again.
Act I · Departure
Beginner’s mind · 起點
Morning mist and the edge of the village. Awareness stirs. You take the first step without needing the whole map.
Act II · The mountain
Exploration & trial · 探索與考驗
Verdant slopes give way to dark cloud. The path tests attachment, fear, and the stories of the small self.
Act III · The peak
Awakening light · 覺醒之光
Golden clarity after the storm. Not a trophy—only seeing clearly what was always here.
Act IV · Return
Warm sunlight · 歸家
The same village, a different gaze. Practice continues in ordinary life—the still point carried within.
