  • Shot through with Space (Part 1)
    This is the first talk in a mini-series on practicing with the experience of space and spaciousness. The exploration starts with a fundamental shift in view… from “space separates” to “space connects.” We are culturally trained to see space as being between things and separating our self from the world, thus reinforcing opposition and alienation. But what if space is connecting and bonding—and beyond that enveloping, penetrating, and accommodating everything as it is? Such a shift can have profound implications for how we live—with less opposition and judgment and more acceptance and intimacy. To embody this, we need to make our minds spacious, open, and accommodating, thus freeing others and ourselves to be as we are. This can serve as a foundation for liberation from suffering, wisdom, and compassion.Welcome to Zen Mind!Love the dharma talks and want to hear more?

  • Breathing Through the Whole Body
    This talk was given as an opening talk to a workshop on “Breath Practice.” It explores breath as our most vital form of nourishment. Breath practice has two intertwined dimensions: supporting health and well-being, and serving as a path of spiritual awakening. The first part of the talk looks at the foundations of healthy breathing, drawing on both science and direct experience. From there, it turns to the Buddhist tradition, highlighting four core principles found in key mindfulness sutras: 1) Go to a quiet place—not just externally but inwardly, 2) Invite the spine into uprightness, 3) Notice the sensations of breathing at the front of the body (nostrils and abdomen), and 4) Breathe through the whole body. As part of a spiritual path, the aim of breath practice isn’t to perfect the breath, but to discover—through the subtle, whole-body experience of breathing—a deeper sense of who we are.The talk draws from these three books:​​​​​​​Will Johnson; Breathing through the Whole Body: The Buddha's Instructions on Integrating Mind, Body, and BreathJames Nestor; Breath: The New Science of a Lost ArtPatrick McKeown; The Oxygen Advantage: Simple, Scientifically Proven Breathing Techniques to Help You Become Healthier, Slimmer, Faster and Fitter―Improve Your Health and Fitness with Efficient Breathing TechniquesWelcome to Zen Mind!Love the dharma talks and want to hear more?

  • Being Touched By Life
    This talk was given as part of a One-Day Sitting at the Boulder Zen Center. It reflects on moments when we are touched by life. Nothing special, just ordinary moments -- washing the dishes, looking at your child, seeing the grasses outside your window swayed by the wind. To be touched by life is maybe our deepest longing. However, the human mind has the tendency to replace the intimacy of direct experience with concepts, stories, and identities, thus alienating itself from what is most fulfilling. Our practice is not to stop all our thinking and make some special experience called awakening happen. It is to free attention from being captured by the narrowness of thought, and instead shift it to breath, body, and phenomena. Breathing, feeling, and sensing are doors to the present, and the present is the door to a spacious and timeless field of awareness. Experiencing our human form located within this wider field then functions as a continuous invitation to be touched by life.Welcome to Zen Mind!Love the dharma talks and want to hear more?

  • The Art of Enough
    We human beings tend to generate stress—and sometimes even burnout— by perceiving situations and ourselves as not enough. This talk starts out with the question "When is there enough?" and tries on the view that "Just now is already enough." By recognizing that we are always already significantly supported by breath, food, shelter, and our society (however crazy it might appear), we can learn to rest in a basic satisfaction and inner peace. From a Buddhist point of view, this depends on letting go of grasping and resisting, releasing ourselves into the field of "undivided activity," and realizing that we are an expression of that field. The talk elucidates how we can use the classic understanding of the middle path between self-indulgence and self-mortification as a way to develop an "Art of Enough." This art doesn't deny the need for improvement and doesn't shut down engagement with personal and societal problems. However, it does emphasize that a basic sense of enoughness needs to come first if we want to avoid being captured by a race to more and more that can easily lead to emotional and energetic burnouts.Welcome to Zen Mind!Love the dharma talks and want to hear more?

  • On Alienation and Intimacy
    This talk was given as part of a Weekend Sitting at the Boulder Zen Center. It examines the feeling of alienation that comes from the mental construction of a separate self with an internal and an external space. What is the cure for such alienation? Learning to locate ourselves in an experiential space, in which all the contents of our lives (the physical world as well as our feelings and thoughts) are allowed to happen just as they are happening. Despite the serious personal and societal problems we face in this complicated world, we can discover that the experience of being alive is magnificent and luminous. This is intimacy! – the feeling that all that appears right now is my life right now. This intimacy exists before thought and thus separation arises. Zazen is a way to make this intimate, luminous space before thought arises our true home.Welcome to Zen Mind!Love the dharma talks and want to hear more?
