September 12, 2016 The Tyranny of Feelings - by Sokuzan - Wednesday, September 7, 2016 - http://sokukoji.org
When swamped by a difficult feeling, there is a tendency to label it or jump to a story about it or blame something or someone to get out of that feeling. This covers up the basic situation. Your sitting practice will strengthen your ability to just be with the feeling and help you see what it really is.

September 12, 2016 Does The Teacher Meddle - by Sokuzan - Wednesday, August 31, 2016 - http://sokukoji.org
Sokuzan sometimes uses the word "meddle" in his teachings. "Don't meddle with what arises in mind based on your misunderstandings." So how do we relate to someone we've given permission to be our teacher when it feels like meddling?

Whatever it is you feel like you are being pulled into...hold your seat. Give it some time. Wait and see what it is before you do anything, and don't do anything unless you just have to do it.
