Blue Cliff Record, Case 54
In this talk, Hogen Sensei uses the dialogue of this koan to explore our fundamental sense of who we are and to remind us that practice is always our own, a journey of discovering and realizing our true nature. The answers to what we seek are within our own lives, aided by our own ability to listen, and our clear intention to be of benefit in the world, and to manifest realization in all aspects of our lives.
