Being Still

from The Zen Mountain Monastery Podcast · host Zen Mountain Monastery

Jody Hojin Kimmel, Sensei – ZMM – 7/25/25 – What we do, how we use our minds and our time, can transform our lives. When we can quiet the constant referencing of a “self,” our internal preoccupations and obsessions, we begin to find the still point and rest there. In this Sesshin talk, Hojin Sensei invokes the stillness of a mountain range, and the stilling of turbid water as it settles, and the whole of reality that this can reveal.
