Dharma Sunday (3/16) - Yunmen’s Cake: Another Useless “Zen” Tale (Online)

Live Online! 

10:00 am – 12:00 pm ET

Story #77 in the Blue Cliff Record (1211 CE)

Initially a guided meditation that turns formless, loosening the bonds of the “ghost cave” of discursive thought. And then exploring an ancient Zen skit: stopping, looking, tasting the cake of what some call “just this.” No longer running about looking for what is our “birthright.” Free to act as we are. “I sleep when I’m tired and I eat when I am hungry.” “Our struggle becomes our pleasure.”

Dharma Sundays with Natural Dharma Fellowship take place most Sundays. These sessions, led by highly trained NDF Dharma and guest teachers, include guided meditation, teachings, and time for discussions. A wide range of topics are offered at the discretion of the teacher.
