Zen Archery
Using archery as meditation, where hitting the target emerges from complete presence and egolessness.
Kyudo (the way of the bow) is Zen archery where technique serves spiritual development. The archer doesn't aim so much as become one with the target. Eugen Herrigel's 'Zen in the Art of Archery' describes six years studying with a master who taught that 'it shoots' - there is no separate archer. This principle applies to all activities: when ego dissolves, action becomes effortless and perfect. Research on flow states confirms this - peak performance occurs when self-consciousness disappears. The arrow finds the target when the archer disappears.
The more obstinately you try to learn how to shoot the arrow for the sake of hitting the goal, the less you will succeed.
