Zazen Before Zazen

As we start sitting in the lotus posture, appears the impulse which sets the whole energy-burning machine in motion.
When the back of the foot comes to rest on the top of the opposite thigh, the knee rests on the ground: the great pump starts pulsating.
And the strong, natural, unconscious, or almost, inspiration descends along the backbone to reach the well of the zafu.
