Empty, new and utterly fleeting, arriving now but already done.

Description:  In this first Teisho from the Encounter of the Heart Retreat, January 2021, Valerie Forstman  reminds us that this practice is much bigger than any events, or any circumstances. To be able to hear the dharma is truly rare. To do so we must: Stop and see, sit still and let go.

And, here’s a link to our YouTube video of this talk.
