File name: 66-08-16: Our mind should be calm (Verbatim)
Zazen doesn't follow [1-3 words unclear].
Our mind should-- should not be stagnant or in agitation. Our mind should be calm. And to be calm does not mean to be stagnant.
So put your head more straight and up-- upright. In this case, don't pull your chin.
Then your state of mind will change.
