What if your practice wasn’t about self-improvement, but about opening the door of Buddha wisdom for all beings?
Drawing on Chapter Two of the Lotus Sutra, Koshin Sensei speaks about skillful means, our wildly different capacities, and the confusion we create when we cling to comfort or try to please everyone.
He introduces the fierce energy of Fudō Myō-o, the immovable one who protects the Dharma in the midst of fire, and asks how we might welcome all our aspects, whether rage, tenderness, confusion, and clarity, into the assembly of our lives.
With humor and tenderness, he points us toward a life guided by vow rather than habit.
