The Essentials of Zen and Authentic Spirituality
Join Seijaku Roshi for an evening designed to deepen our
appreciation of the central teachings of Zen and Authentic
Spirituality, so we may practice wholeheartedly and integrate
the practice more fully into our everyday living.
It is only with the heart that
one can see rightly;
what is essential is invisible to the eye.
—ANTOINE DE SAINT-EXUPÉRY
"If we were to ask the Buddha, "What is bodhichitta?" he might
tell us that this word is easier to understand than to
translate. He might encourage us to seek out ways to find its
meaning in our own lives. He might tantalize us by adding that
it is only bodhichitta that heals, that bodhichitta is capable
of transforming the hardest of hearts and the most prejudiced
and fearful of minds."
-
Pema Chodron "The Places that Scare You"
"Liberating the Human Heart"
The evening will include a guided meditation instruction, a
teaching on cultivating and nurturing "heart-mind", the mind
that expresses itself through joy, compassion, and confidence.
"It is only bodhichitta that heals, bodhichitta is
capable of transforming the hardest of hearts and the most
prejudiced and fearful of minds."
There will be time for questions and answers. Each night
will address a particular topic surrounding our daily living
experiences.
