Answer from Master Kosen
Try paragliding!
The comparison with paragliding is not completely stupid, because if you fall asleep while paragliding, you will certainly kill yourself. Master Kodo Sawaki said, “Zazen must be like a fight to the death.” When we enter the dojo to practice zazen, if we are sincere and truly practice, we should pay as much attention as when paragliding. Then sleep does not come.
