SUNDAY ZEN with John Tarrant & Friends: Everyone! There’s Nothing to Worry About. Try to See That!
REGISTER
Ultimately, how is it? Everyone, there’s nothing to worry about. Try to hold it up to view.
There was a modern Zen teacher who would ask, “What is it?” It felt like a kind of harassment, but amusing. Eventually someone would say, “It’s this! Just this!”
And the teacher would say, “Very good.”
Later he would ask for more. He wanted to hear, “Only just this.”
And then everyone would relax until he was driven to ask for a new way to say, “It’s all here already.”
But right now, there’s nothing to worry about. The year is heading into the solstice and ‘Chrissie’ as the Australians say.
In the dark and silence and quiet there is nothing to worry about.
Join us on Sunday and let’s not worry together.
—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
