Zazen at the Moment by Moment Hangout

[Taigen]

It was fun to drop in and meet everyone last night! As promised, here are a couple of links related to the subject of my undergraduate thesis on Zen, Edward Espe Brown:

This is obviously just the trailer, I haven't watched the full documentary in ages but I'm sure it is still out there.

And this was the main book I wrote about: Tomato Blessings and Radish Teachings

Ironically, he has written a few books since I wrote my paper that would have made gleaning his particular brand of spiritual insight dramatically easier! Also, in searching for videos of the documentary on his life, I discovered that Mr. Brown actually gave a dharma talk at Treeleaf some years ago!

It's a small Zen world, apparently!

Yup the problem with being in the moment is other moments keep getting in the way. Seriously though drop in whenever you can make it. If you're a little late cool, just hit the cushion , need to leave early that's fine 2. We'll just be there chillin.

Check your Zoom settings. Ask Bion, and he can explain the issue. At least, strike those bells firmly!
