On the day after the 2016 US presidential election of Donald Trump, Sokuzan was inspired to give this Dharma talk. He teaches:

"The very nature of things that arise is that they are hooked into everything else. There are not separate things occurring. It is not something to believe or disbelieve. Meditate. See for yourself if it can be anything other than what it is. In any Buddhist tradition that is a true spiritual path it is called Buddha Dharma, or "Awakened Truth" without the credential of proof....If you have warfare inside you will take it out into the world to justify your position or fuel your despair and shut down. Train your mind, make friends with yourself on a very deep level, so what you need to do comes choicelessly out of your awareness instead of the thinking process."
