Abiding Well In The Mountains

Geoffrey Shugen Arnold, Roshi – ZMM – Saturday 6/28/25 – How do we make the dharma our own? In Zen training, we have to fully let go of the expectations and ideas of what it will look like once we realize ourselves. And importantly, we need to let go of our self-criticism and other kinds of self-centered preoccupation. As we continue to build confidence in our abilities and the practice itself, we learn to abide well anywhere we go, in all aspects of our lives. – From the Koans of the Way of Reality – Yunju’s “Abiding in the Mountains”
