I’m particularly interested in Zen v. Theravada, but other comparisons are very welcome as well.

Alright, now i no that i shouldn’t be “picking” a religion, but my parents are athiest and I would like to have some faith in my life. Zen is all about balance and peace (at least i think) and they have some great rules of life in which i would love to study and learn (again, at least i think). I would just like some feedback and views on the subject.

I don’t want a detailed textbook or a New Age westernized ripoff of this school of Buddhism. Something with a focus on koans and the basic mindset of meditation would be great.

What are you supposed to think about when you are meditating in a Zazen posture? Are you supposed to think about something?

Another words, what does Zen Buddhism specifically teach regarding it? Also, i’m rather an idiot at these things so if you could please answer my question as though a child were asking, i’d appreciate it hehe.

If you are a skeptic and are more rational and logical and are having issues with depression, etc and wish to be more happy and optimistic in the midst of life’s day to day challenges and emotional turmoil, which is the easiest and most effective path to take? Nichiren Buddhism or Zen Buddhism? Please, serious answers that only pertain to the question.

Thanks
