Sunday Zen with Guest Host Tess Beasley & Friends: Dissolving the Plot, Discovering the Unforeseen
I remember a dream once in which the danger seemed certain, but then a sliding door opened as if I were in a grocery store and a gaggle of turkeys wandered through.
Whatever plot I’d been holding to suddenly gave way and the world stood open.
Being alive comes with plenty of good reasons to be afraid, but having a practice means making way for the turkeys and other unexpected gifts of the mind to appear.
As we become more intimate with the world, it shares its secrets with us. As we become less certain, new pathways appear.
Join us Sunday for meditation, music, and stories of encountering the unforeseen.
—Tess Beasley
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
