Sunday Zen with John Tarrant & Friends: How to Survive Interesting Times

March 9, 2025 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm

 


You can’t ignore the cruelty and you can’t panic and think your life is over.

Also, strangely, we can’t escape to Mars.

Getting to Mars isn’t really getting into the universe. We enter reality by becoming aware of our own thoughts and feelings. Kindness for those we meet along the way is good, too. Love. Modesty in what we can achieve is good. Accuracy and honesty are good.

We are here for a short time and we can love each other. Poetry and art are good too.

It’s good to know that your own life can be beautiful in all kinds of times.

Join us this 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
