What is a PZI Dharma Theme?

Awakening Tapping on Your Window: Encountering the Immensity of Life
Poet Jane Hirshfield writes, “softly, calmly, immensity taps at your life.” In Zen we call that awakening. This four-part series will explore practice as a fundamentally creative act, whereby we discover that we ourselves are that immensity, and learn to listen more closely to the humming intelligence of all life.
