This Dharma talk was given by the Reverend Jay Risen Weik Roshi at the Buddhist Temple of Toledo on Dec 31, 2023. In this talk Risen Roshi offers reflections during the winter solstice practice period on what a 21st Century western hermitage looks like for our sangha. Roshi encourages us to use all of the ingredients of the solstice period and our lives, dedicating the merit of our practice to all sentient beings.
