Upcoming Practice Periods

“Please know and remember that to maintain and utilize this understanding, most of us will need a strong and consistent concentration-meditation practice, Mondo Zen koan practice, and a community/sangha for support. Through your concentration-meditation practice, you become aware of and cultivate awareness of your deeper mind, develop the ability to remain non-reactive in the face of threat or insult, and have time to stop unconsciously reacting, open your eyes and your heart, clearly discern, and compassionately respond.”
