520 |a This paper is concerned with the processes of conversion-commitment to a new religious form and how it is actually accomplished by the individual. Physiological consequences of meditative practices are seen as neglected by sociologists and as important for shedding light on how one becomes in this case a Zen practitioner. Becker's analysis of the learning involved in becoming a marijuana user is applied to the case of the person beginning Zen meditation and a striking similarity is found. Some observations on the differences between the processes of conversion-commitment in Zen meditation and other cases found in the literature are made.
