On Formal and Daily Practice
from Zen Mind · host Zenki Christian Dillo
This talk was given as part of the closing ceremony of the 3-month Everyday Zen Practice Period. At the end of retreats and periods of intensified practice, many practitioners wonder how they can carry the renewed and invigorated sense of practice into their everyday lives. The answer is simple but not easy to implement: continue to stay fully present in each situation, each action, each gesture. The talk connects this challenge to the wisdom of Dogen's Genjo Koan, which was discussed throughout the Practice Period.We are excited to announce the self-paced course on Dogen’s Genjo Koan is live!
