Description

Rev. Clairissa reflects on how sitting in meditation leads to becoming truly seated in our place of meditation, made possible by not letting anything get in the way of our doing the practice of meditating and living the life of the Precepts, in all conditions.

She refers to the teaching of Great Master Eihei Dōgen (1200-1253), specifically Chapter 26 from the Shōbōgenzō, the collection of Dōgen’s lifetime of recorded Dharma talks. This is the chapter titled “On Wanshi’s ‘Kindly Advice for Doing Seated Meditation’” (“Zazen Shin” in Japanese), written down in April of the year 1242 C.E. in Japan.
