Zen summed up!

09/11/2025

In exactly one week, we shall meet for our first session! If you have both a zafu and a zabuton of your own, you are absolutely welcome to come. If not, you must warn me in the comments below, as we have spares for just one person only. If you show up with neither without forewarning, you may be turned away.

Canford Heath Community Centre
Sunday 16th November
At 14:30 - 17:00

As our dharma friend Daniel says, kensho (seeing your true nature) is a bit like the moment when you go from seeing two black faces to one white vase in this picture. What changes? Nothing. But actually everything changes, because your perspective shifts.

You go from seeing yourself as a separate, isolated individual with a defined edge, to seeing yourself more like a wave on the ocean - with an identity that’s part of the whole. There’s no more of you or less of you, but somehow everything is different. You no longer have to participate in the individual fight for survival - because it’s not “little old me” any more.

If you can let go of something as small as the self, you can gain something as large as the universe.
