I had my annual physical today, the way they do it in Japan.
(Wow,
I hope my fellow Americans soon get a national health insurance system
like they have here in Japan ... let's just say that there is not an
inch or opening of the body left untouched, and it cost me what a
single emergency room visit used to run me in the States. As a matter
of fact, an emergency room visit last week in Japan, with x-rays and
tests and such, cost me the equivalent of $20 US ... and I got
excellent treatment).
But, anyway, today
as I was stuffed into the MRI machine, later as the tummy camera was
stuffed down my throat, then as something else was stuffed somewhere
for the prostate exam ... each presented a perfect time for a moment of Zazen ... (I bet you knew I was gonna say that)
POWERFUL MEDICINE ...
(I'm talking about the Zazen!)

a sitting time of 20 to 35 minutes is recommended)
