| Chomon |
(1) [concentrated] hearing and listening [to the Buddha-dharma]; Sincere listening leads us to hear the Dharma and be awakened to the reality of our own existence and that of Amida Buddha; hence the famous phrase, "To hear is to entrust oneself".
(2) Chomon is also the name of a special practice (established by the 13th Head Priest of Shogyoji; Reion Takehara) which involves solitary introspection and sutra study followed by discussions with Dharma friends.
This kind of chomon is often called an Introspection Session.
