Genmai is the traditional rice soup eaten in Japanese temples after zazen and the morning ceremony. It embodies the realisation of the concentration practised during zazen in the actions of daily life. At the Zen Dojo Zürich Muijoji, we serve genmai every morning from Monday to Friday following zazen.
If the genmai is authentic, all things become authentic. If all actions in life are authentic, then the genmai, too, becomes authentic.
