Awareness in Everyday Life - Hogen, Roshi

from Zen Community of Oregon Dharma Talks · host Zen Community of Oregon

Hogen explores how awareness and direct experience form the foundation of spiritual practice, inviting us to look closely at our own minds rather than relying on secondhand beliefs. He emphasizes grounding in the body and present moment as a way to uncover what is truly real and alive. Through this lens, challenges and problems become opportunities to expand perspective, cultivate wisdom, and deepen compassion. Ultimately, the talk points to a practice of meeting life fully—with clarity, resilience, and an open heart. ★ Support this podcast ★
