Kigaku Noah Roen: Confessions of a Zen Multitasker

In this “confession” of a Zen multitasker, Kigaku Noah Roen talks about what we lose when work on multiple projects at once and gives tips on practicing uni-tasking and even zero-tasking. He explains how the uni-task of meditation prepares us to take care of one thing at a time in our daily lives and how taking care of one thing at a time prepares us to meditate. Kigaku concludes with an exploration of shikantaza: just sitting without method, without distraction, without any task to accomplish whatsoever.
