Re: SIT-A-LONG with JUNDO: WHOLLY HOLY WHOLE

let go of both the absolute and the relative. Let go of perfectly perfect lacking nothing and 'not enough'

and live you life as is, moment by moment.

there are some things in life that can be figured out, but not life itself.

Beautiful. Thanks.

Nice talk, jundo.

I just keep listening to this Sit-A-Long again and again....it just really hits a nerve (in a good way). I feel this description of zazen is really gets at its "essence."

Hi Ryan,

No need for "Roshi" or "Sensei" around here. I am an informal Yankee. Just Jundo is fine. Sometimes "Capt' Jundo".

There is an old saying in Soto Zen, that someone becomes "Roshi" when they get old and can con other folks into calling them "Roshi".

Gassho, Jundo

PS - If you are interested, here is an old essay on all those terms that we use and misuse about Zen folks in the west.
