Taking Refuge in Reality: Allowing Zazen to Manifest in All We Do, A Dharma Talk by Shoryu Jim Bradley

Saturday, May 29 at 10:00 am

 
Taking Refuge in the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha is of course a fundamental practice common to all Buddhist traditions. But what is the meaning of taking refuge in our day to day, moment by moment practice, and specifically how does it relate to our zazen as the foundation of our lives? These are topics Rev. Shoryu will discuss in this talk.
