Time and Zen

Dr Sue Blackmore, November 16th


In Zen practice we are often urged to stay with the "now" - but is there a now? In some experiences time itself seems to disappear or stop - but what has stopped? Sue’s struggles with koans such as "There is no time, what is memory?" and "When is this?" have provoked more bewilderment than answers, and she hopes to share this bewilderment with you.

Sue Blackmore is Visiting Professor of Psychology at the University of Plymouth and author of Ten Zen Questions.
