Did you know that sangha means harmony? Last week in Salt Lake, some of our sangha gathered for a sesshin. We shared silent meditation practice, we completed work practice like cooking and cleaning together, we learned from our teachers, + supported each other in our practice.

New from Genpo Roshi: The Game of Life.

[Genpo Roshi @GenpoRoshi]

"The question is, who is driving this vehicle that we call our life? You will find out who the driver is—the one who is 100% responsible for cause and effect, for action and reaction, and is neither a victim, a perpetrator, nor a rescuer."
https://t.co/zgaToghSoC

[Genpo Roshi @GenpoRoshi]

"In the Game of Life Intensive we see and realize that life is not solid, substantial or permanent, we relax and enjoy the gifts that life brings us naturally, and our ordinary life becomes the very playing field of awakening.”
-Genpo Roshi.
