Description
There is a restlessness in the question, “What is Buddha?” If we look beyond what we think we know of as Buddha, the answer can be anything. A Zen master answered this question with, “dried shit stick!” Nothing is excluded; the jewel can be anywhere. Complete Sunday Zen session, with poems from Li Bai and John Tarrant. April 28, 2023.
Summary
There is a restlessness in the question, “What is Buddha?” If we look beyond what we think we know of as Buddha, the answer can be anything. A Zen master answered this question with, “dried shit stick!”
There is a sacredness about your thoughts and feelings that may have been overlooked. Nothing is excluded; the jewel can be anywhere.
If we stop interfering and allow the silence to hold us, the world comes to us. The most difficult thing may be the gate. What if it’s a disaster? That’s it, too. Whatever it is, Buddha is here.
With poems from Li Bai and John Tarrant. Music from Jordan McConnell and Michael Wilding.
Complete Sunday Zen session recorded April 28, 2023
