from The Zen Mountain Monastery Podcast · host Zen Mountain Monastery
Ron Hogen Green, Sensei – ZMM – 10/22/25 – Our biggest challenges often take form in how we create or perpetuate suffering, and these are likely to be in stark contrast to the peace and groundedness experienced in zazen. In zazen we experience our true nature up close, but it often doesn’t seem to be in alignment with our restless and uneasy mind. How do we close the distance, take responsibility for the rift that seems impassable, and continue to move closer? – From the Master Dogen’s True Dharma Eye – Case 10 – Qingyuan’s “Come Closer”
