Fusatsu: Pure Heart Pure Mind

from The Zen Mountain Monastery Podcast · host Zen Mountain Monastery

Danica Shoan Ankele, Sensei – ZMM – 11/6/25 – The beautiful activity of Fusatsu, taking the time to recognize/acknowledge harm, atone (become one-with), and thereby shore up our footing on the Path. It’s a way to bring to the fore the Buddha’s earliest teaching: the pure precepts; To not create evil, to practice good, and to purify the mind (practice good for others.) In those terms, how do we do that? Shoan Osho talks about an aspect of the 4 immeasurables: vowing to “know the root of our suffering.” How is that for each of us?
