Jody Hojin Kimmel, Sensei

Zen Mountain Monastery, 10/25/2019

From Master Hongzhi’s “Cultivating the Empty Field.”

Hojin Sensei delves into Hongzhi’s poetic dharma instructions for awakening, still fresh. This practice of inquiry reveals how we come to be, creating ‘self’ and all the places where we become dis-embodied. We can learn to move freely within the wholeness and illumination which is our awakening at heart, undivided, revealing to ourselves the ebb and flow of all phenomena.
