Brad Warner - Zen Ethics for Today (#213)
from Ten Laws with East Forest · host Brad Warner, East Forest
In The Other Side of Nothing: The Zen Ethics of Time, Space, and Being , Zen teacher Brad Warner untangles the mystery and explains nonduality in plain English. To Warner, this is not just a philosophical problem: nonduality forms the bedrock of Zen ethics, and once we comprehend it, many of the perplexing aspects of Zen suddenly make sense.Drawing on decades of Zen practice, Warner traces the interlocking relationship between Zen metaphysics and ethics, showing how a true understanding of reality — and the ultimate unity of all things — instills in us a sense of responsibility for the welfare of all beings. When we realize that our feeling of separateness from others is illusory, we have no desire to harm any creature.He lives in Los Angeles where he is the founder and lead teacher of the Angel City Zen Center.
