Refuge in the Lotus Sutra – A Dharma Talk by Zoketsu Norman Fischer

Saturday, November 21st at 10:00am, in AZC's Online Zendo

The Lotus Sutra is foundational to all Far East Asian Buddhisms, and therefore to Zen. Dogen loved this text and quotes it frequently. In his talk Norman will reflect on what the Lotus Sutra has to say about taking refuge.
