How to Meditate
Zuo Chan (meditation) was practiced in China long before the appearance of Chan. The earlier masters practiced according to methods in the Hinayana sutras, which emphasized the techniques collectively known as samatha-vipasyana. Generally speaking, these were methods for achieving samadhi through three aspects: regulating one’s body, regulating one’s breathing, and regulating one’s mind.
坐禪（禪修）在久遠之前的中國已出現。 早期的大師按照小乘佛經的方法練習，強調統稱為samatha-vipasyana的技術。 一般來說，那都是通過三個方面來實現三昧的方法：調節一個人的身體，調節一個人的呼吸，以及調節一個人的心靈。

Please note that it is far better to take instructions from an experienced meditator/instructor, than just reading about how to meditate. 請注意，跟隨有經驗豐富的指導者學習，比僅僅從閱讀上得到的禪修知識好得多。歡迎加入我們每週的禪修練習。

Eight-Form Moving Meditation 八式動禪
There are 2 versions of the Dharma Drum Eight-Form Moving Meditation, from a standing posture and from a sitting posture. We use the standing form at Morning Group Practice every Sunday.
有兩種版本的法鼓山八式動禪，有站立姿勢和坐姿。 我們每週日的早晨禪修是使用站立姿勢的。
The Dharma Drum Eight-Form Moving Meditation was developed by Master Sheng Yen of Dharma Drum Mountain as a means of allowing people living stressful and busy lifestyles to enjoy some of the benefits of Chan meditation. The system, based on many years of practice and personal experience, has incorporated the essence of Chan meditation into a series of simple physical exercises. In addition to physical exercise, practice of the Eight Forms helps you relax your body and mind, so that you can develop a healthy body and a balanced mind.
法鼓山的八式動禪是由法鼓山聖嚴師父所建立的，意讓那些有壓力和忙碌生活的人們享受禪修帶給他們的益處。這套八式動禪是跟據師父多年的實踐和經驗，將禪的精髓融入到這套簡單的體育運動中。 除了鍛煉體格之外，八式動禪練習可以幫助您放鬆身心，從而培養健康的身體和心靈的平衡。
