Zen Commuter

On day three of Tricycle week I thought we would switch gears and read about something a bit lighter, compassion. Mark Van Buren shares a great post that talks about the ways the little things we do to end people's suffering, are just as impactful as the bigger things.

Even though they are different authors, the writers of yesterday post and today's explore the theme of emptiness and self. While they are quite different views on the same subject, there is one similarity: by understanding what is not present, we can understand what truly is. Courtland ends his article with a wonderfully succinct and impactful meditation.

It's been way too long since we were graced by the wisdom of Tricycle, the Buddhist magazine. But thankfully, that ends this week, starting off with a phenomenal article by Peter Coyote. In it, he helps us explore the nature of self. Or more to the point, the absence of self. He let's us know that when we given up the need to define ourselves, we understand we are connected to everything. You won't want to miss this one.

The last time we go together I shared a fascinating interview with Dean Graves. Today I expound on some of the topics we spoke of the last time we got together. Our first talk was at the beginning of the year. This one was into the warmer months of summer just as Dean's latest book was about to launch. In fact, it launched that day. If you are curious about the nature of consciousness, and how to live more peacefully, I heartily encourage you to pick it up. Come listen to another enlightening discussion.

There are many focuses a meditation can have; breath, of course, or music, mantras or sounds. But there is a focus that we can use to still our minds that isn't often talked about. In fact, in my 40 years of meditation, I haven't heard anyone talk about it. Ready to hear about it? Well, there's no reason to wait. Come listen.
