Description: This is the fourth in a series of seven brief talks on Ryugin, "The Dragon's Song," written by Dogen Zenji, the 13th Century founder of the Soto Zen School of Buddhism in Japan. The talks explain the meanings of various metaphors and are meant to support zazen, Zen meditation practice. I recommend following each talk with a period of silent zazen. --
