Desert Rain Zen Sunrise Retreat, March 2025: "The World of Dew," 3rd night talk: Megan

Send us Fan MailMegan gives the third night retreat talk, bringing in several Issa poems that focus on impermanence, loss, and grief, then offering an extended meditation on “the world of dew / is the world of dew / and yet, and yet.” How can we allow ourselves feel this “and yet, and yet” fully, letting our hearts be broken when they are broken and feeling and working through our grief as deeply as we can? What makes it hard to do this, and how can our practice help us enter this difficult terrain and accompany our grief, allowing its transformation, and our own? A group conversation follows Megan’s talk. (talk given March 6, 2025 at the Redemptorist Renewal Center at Picture Rocks in Tucson) *About us:Desert Rain Zen is located in Tucson, Arizona.
