r/chan↗
禅 Chán Buddhism
Chán is the teaching that arose when Boddhidharma traveled to the east in order to enlighten people from the buddhist tradition who had lost their way in nonsensical discussions of what is and isn't, egocentric attachments, and idle talk. No cleaning and polishing the mirror, because there's no mirror. This subreddit is dedicated to Chán Buddhist practitioners, newcomers, and people interested in Chán Buddhism in general.
