In this talk from Sunday Open Zen, May 13, 2018, Tetsugan shares a koan from Blue Cliff Record, Case 16, that illustrates the wholehearted activity between teacher and student that helps the student arrive at awakening. Tetsugan emphasizes that while Zen is all about relationship, ultimately, students are responsible for their own liberation, and consistency in one's practice is essential for waking up. (So, don't fall into the trap of being a Zen practitioner who doesn't practice Zen.)
