Gaining Enlightenment

Geoffrey Shugen Arnold, Roshi – ZMM – 10/19/25 – We may aspire to enlightenment, or we may simply have faith in this path that seems to be leading us in a good direction. Enlightenment can seem a far away concept from the daily struggles of being human, but that sense of distance comes from seeking something outside of ourselves. The bright, luminous mind of enlightenment, Roshi reminds us, is always so much closer than we can imagine. (Fall 2025 Ango – Genjokoan Series of Talks – Part 7)
