I remember as a child how I used to dread these christian stories of Hell for ever, everlasting burning and torture. You ll find these in the great works of J. Bosch and Breughel. Or...it could also have een eternal bliss in the lap of God and surrounded by hysterical saints and devoted angels. An eternity of f...... boredom.

Zazen zazen zazen, but is there a place for study and meditating on old texts? Is it meaningful to chant in a dead langauge that you don't understand? gate gate paragate parasamgate bodhi svaha. What does repeating this chant mean to you? (not necessarily literal translation, but how do you find it adds to your practice?).
