Beyond the Wall
This talk was given at the conclusion of our February Bodhidharma Sesshin. Shugen Roshi asks us “Why are we here?” “In the deepest sense, we’re here to transmit the dharma. It happens when we are practicing all the time, and most of the time we are not aware of it. Transmission is an intimate encounter. It’s meeting the dharma, intimately. It’s really important as a sangha to be very very clear about that.” “You are here to see what is real and what is not real. This is of the utmost importance. Please do not forget.”
