What does it mean to cultivate selflessness and, when needed, to embody self fully, in this female form? Zuisei Sensei invokes a few of our women ancestors and contemporaries, including Otagaki Rengetsu, Reverend Angel Kyodo Williams, Hojin Sensei, and her own experiences in light of this question.

Hojin Sensei leads a large study group through an introduction and overview to the Therigatha, a collection of poems by early female monastics and practitioners, many of whom were students of the Buddha himself. Hojin Sensei ends the discussion by chanting one of the poems.

This talk was given at the opening of the current ango training period. Shugen Roshi addresses the theme of the ango, and questions how we can best honor our lineages, knowing that the manners of the past can sometimes clash with our own values of equality and inclusivity.

With apologies, the video image cuts out during the last couple minutes of the talk. The audio, however, remains consistent through the conclusion.
