What's Love Got to Do With It? (Sesshin Day 1)
Manage episode 415682265 series 2932613
This talk is the first of seven Sesshin talks. (A Sesshin is a 7-day Zen meditation intensive.) It starts with the question, 'What does it mean to love?' The word 'love' carries all kind of baggage. So much so that in American Zen it doesn't seem to have a whole lot of currency. Yet, we're all longing for the spiritual dimension of love. This wide-ranging talk explores the connections between love and unconditional acceptance, saying yes to life, sweetness, straightforwardness, meaning, self-improvement, buddha, big mind, warm-heartedness—and how all of that can only be practiced and embodied in this very moment now.
