SUNDAY ZEN with John Tarrant & Friends: Snowed In – Companions to Be Thankful For
In a temple, people sit together and forget themselves. We forget the thoughts in our heads, our family sorrows, our disapproval of, well, of so many things. It’s as if we are all snowed in.
Then we might notice a field effect—we are connected to each other, often in ways that we don’t necessarily understand. Our friendships are deep and mysterious and change us; we all get enlightened together.
Long ago, two friends were snowed in on Tortoise Mountain.
We’ll explore this matter of how we are linked together and how important friendship can be in difficult times. Something to be grateful for.
Join us Sunday.
—John Tarrant
Meditation is not a task with a known goal. It’s something you can’t do wrong, a chance for the things of this world to come towards you and to meet you, for doors to open by themselves, and for us to see where the ancient paths lead.
Waking up is something we do together, in the online temple on Sunday. We love it when you join us.
—John Tarrant Roshi and all of us at PZI
