The Mantras I Have Tried



When I started



Zen meditation



I was taught



to count my breath



up to ten



but the number six



bugged me



so then I was taught



to count to five



in Korean,



and to use mantras



in Sanskrit



or some sort of language



but I thought



that if there were



some psychics out there



that they would think



I was some kind



of Russian or Chinese spy



or something



since I live



in America



so now I am just



counting



"One, Two, Three"



for the time being



and that's pretty cool.
