In zen buddhism, zazen (seated meditation) is a meditative discipline.

This nice timer utility guides you practicing zazen or other meditative disciplines using sounds and background images.

Use the stones for time setting or choose enhanced time setting:

You are able to customize your meditation sessions, each containing as many meditation events as you need. Each event can have it‘s own sound. You can choose a sound from a predefined chimes list, or you can add your own chimes and background music from the iPod. The duration of each event can be variable or fixed. Finally choose a background image for your meditation from a predefined image list or add an image from your iPhoto library.

A journal tracks all your meditation sessions in chronological order.

Alternatively, use the timer to simply fall asleep with your favorite music. The timer will stop the iPod automatically after a predefined time.

Now touch the candlelight to start your meditation, take a breath, relax and wait for the first gong sound to come...
