Episode 359: Restoring Darkness #52 - Zen And The Art Of The Night Sky


Listen Later

Mark discusses with Michael, practicing mindfulness when under the night sky. He proposes that astronomy was the first science, out of necessity. The night sky is the only view that hasn’t changed and now a large portion of humans can’t even see it. Mark says, whatever your view - clouds, streetlights - just be in the moment and enjoy what you have. (But still, let’s eliminate light pollution!)

Mark has been studying Zen with Zen Master Daizan Skinner from Zenways for over 10 years.
