Four Gates Zen Robes and Zen Meditation clothing

Four Gates Zen Robes and Zen meditation cushions are an essential part of meditation practice where you are a student, beginner, lay ordained Buddhist Priest or fully ordained Zen Priest. Zen meditation garments are a reflection of your commitment to the tradition from which you take inspiration. Wearing the kimono beneath, or Jubon (aka Juban) protects the robe and adds warmth when needed. The hand made Rakusu is important to reflect your vows, precepts and personal commitment. All of these are outer reminders of a deeper connection to the three jewels: Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. Zen robes and Zen garments are specifically designed for the meditation tradition and enhances the experience. Your robe is the physical embodiment of your inner being. Robes acknowledge the commitment to living a life in the presence of the Dharma (Buddhist teachings), the teacher (Buddha) and the Sangha (spiritual community). Whatever your viewpoint, we believe you will agree that mindful attention to your attire is beneficial.
