 ZEN Green Tea Liqueur photography contest : With the popularity of such Asian influences as yoga, sushi and feng shui, the concept of ZEN has made its mark in American culture. The secret of Zen philosophy is that it can be expressed across a variety of artistic endeavors: writing, paintings, calligraphy and photography. ZEN Green Tea Liqueur, America’s first super-premium green tea liqueur, invites consumers 21 and over to participate in the first ever “What is Zen?” photography contest for a chance to express their interpretation of ZEN and win a trip for two to Japan. The contest will begin on August 13th and run through December 15th. The winner will be announced January 4th, 2008.

 ZEN Green Tea Liqueur
Zen is often described as vitality and the ability to see things as they really are. This philosophy embraces the principle of opposing but complimentary forces called Yin-Yang: Yin, is seen as the tranquil, receptive, dark force, while Yang is the creative, energetic, bright, active force. In the “What is Zen?” contest, ZEN asks consumers to submit photographs that convey both a positive, uplifting interpretation of their subject matter while, like Zen, maintaining serenity and balance. The winning photograph will be a modern expression of the Zen philosophy and one that demonstrates both passive and active forces in a stylish and exciting way.
