July 2019 Zazenkai Talk - "Building a House and the Four Seals"

Sunday Jul 21, 2019

Rev. Sekishi's talk on Building a House and the Four Seals: the four characteristics (or "seals") are sometimes seen as a sort of "litmus test" to see if a teaching reflects true Buddha Dharma. But they can also be viewed as part of the core teachings of Buddhism: All compounded things are impermanent All emotions are Dukkha All phenomena are empty; they are without inherent (or "self") existence Nirvana is beyond extremes / concepts / description Further reading and discussion for this talk are available on the Treeleaf forum:July 5th-6th, 2019 - OUR MONTHLY 4-hour Treeleaf ZAZENKAI! - featuring Sekishi ! »

March 2019 Zazenkai Talk - "IN THE NEWS!"

March 2019 Zazenkai Talk - "IN THE NEWS!"

Monday Jul 15, 2019

Today's Talk will look at a variety of STORIES and ISSUES IN THE NEWS today. Recently, there has been much discussion in the Buddhist world about "leaving politics at the door" of the Buddhist Sangha, where we encounter a way beyond opinions and debates. Generally, I very much agree. Zazen is beyond "right left and middle," and points to something beyond mere worldly concerns. However, I also believe that Buddhist teachings and values do guide us in certain directions in daily life, and toward certain outlooks and behavior, that must impact how we approach some social issues and stories in the news. Further reading and discussion for this talk are available on the Treeleaf forum:March 1st-2nd, 2019 - OUR MONTHLY 4-hour Treeleaf ZAZENKAI! - IN THE NEWS! »
