Stones In A Stream: Zen Practice

A talk in support of the Soto Zen practice of shikantaza (just sitting) meditation that uses the image of river stones being polished by the flowing water in a stream to emphasize the concept of "no gaining mind."

It's simply true. And presented in a simple true fashion. That's five out of five for me.

The image of river stones is very appealing; transferring this acceptance to a noisy city is very challenging as well as very appealing. Thank you
This remains one of my favourite tracks. So simple and so useful. Thanks again
