311 – Ten Fields of Zen, Field 8 – Learning the Self: This Very Body Is Buddha (1 of 3)
Manage episode 502463479 series 1451953
Ultimately, if you want to experience Realization and have it transform your life, you need to commit yourself to Learning the Self. This means becoming intimately familiar with your self - your mind and your body. A lifetime path of practice becomes deeply personal, asking you to face your Karma, take responsibility for it, and use it to find your gateway into awakening. This isn’t just about transforming yourself into a Buddha through your Zen practice, it’s about awakening to how your very body - your unique, imperfect, human manifestation - is Buddha.
