[Jundo]

Rivers, sea, cloud, dew, tears, rain, mist, ice, frost, snow ... flowing, sitting, rippling, turbulent, swirling, clear ... Zen stories and poetry are awash in imagery of water.

What Sutras do the waters preach?



This is a longer talk offered during our February 4-Hour Zazenkai, available online for sitting 'Any Where, Any Time'

Thank you, there is indeed great wisdom in water, and in all of nature, if only we realize it.

Thank you Jundo.

Lotta good humor in this talk. And so many great lessons.

I've pushed against a few dams in my life. May I learn at those times to be still, to rest.

Really great talk. I will put this information to work. Thanks.
