Five Dharmas of the Lankavatara Sutra:

1. Something arises

2. We name it

3. We explain it

4 & 5. Correct knowledge and Suchness, in either order.

If you see anything, that’s ignorance. Just witness it, nothing extra. It is so critical to your awakening.

Are you asking questions or are you having a conversation? Are you ready for a direct answer?

Sometimes you don’t realize you are going in circles, producing. It looks like you’re actually doing something other than covering things up. The idea of receiving through the sitting practice of meditation is by sitting down, holding still, taking up a physical posture and bring all of the senses in, you start to see what you’ve been avoiding. You may not feel better, but the difficulty is your dharma gate. You work with your own personal karma so you can fundamentally be present.

We're always producing something, producing thoughts, producing ideas, producing opinions, judgements, evaluations, building this, tearing this down, doing, doing, doing constantly! With the practice of meditation, we’re sitting down and endeavoring to just receive, see clearly what this production is. You may start to actually understand dependent origination on a deep level instead of just some conceptual idea about it.

Sokuzan guides a contemplation meditation using the great elements, or mahabhutas of earth, water, fire, air, space and consciousness.

What is the fundamental nature of being alive, of having consciousness that apprehends everything and adds to it conclusions about the world and what we should do about it?

Sokuzan's talk is inspired by a line in Dogen's Genjokoan: "When you see forms or hear sounds fully engaging body-and-mind, you grasp things directly. Unlike things and their reflections in the mirror, and unlike the moon and its reflection in the water, when one side is illumined the other side is dark." (This translation is by Robert Aitken and Kazuaki Tanahashi)

Sokuzan’s dharma talk is inspired by verse three of Vasubandhu’s “Tri-Svabhava-Nirdesa” also known as “The Three Natures”, here translated by Stefan Anacker: “The constant state-of-not-being-found of “how it appears” [the constructed] in that which appears [the interdependent] can be known as the fulfilled own being because of it’s state of non-otherness.”
