Description: Henry finishes his discussion of Unmon’s Mt Sumeru. In addition to cutting through our thought streams, Unmon’s powerful short phrase teachings also “ride the waves and sail the swells.” Henry describes how Unmon’s words go along with each student, reaching directly into the student’s understanding. Henry reads from Dogen and talks about the need to fully meet life—metaphorically, both at the peak of the mountain and in the depth of the ocean.
