The Buddha’s attendant Ananda once remarked to him ”I’ve been thinking that community, Sangha, is half the spiritual life”; the Buddha replied "don’t say that Ananda, the *whole* of the spiritual life is within community, within Sangha”. In this talk Daizan Roshi explains about how we can use our relationships with others, particularly the more challenging ones (what he refers to as our troublesome Buddhas), to enrich and deepen our practice.2015-01-2800 minZenways guided Zen meditationsZenways guided Zen meditationsZen meditácia počítania dychu v Slovenčine25 minútová Zen meditácia počítania dychu (susokukan) s doprovodom v Slovenčine, číta Miloš Kaščák. www.zenways.org2015-01-0700 minZenways Dharma TalksZenways Dharma TalksLiving in tune with your partnerDaizan Roshi talks about the Samajivina Sutta, a short account of the Buddha talking to the couple Nakulapita and Nakulamata (father and mother of Nakula).

Then there’s another category called ‘Kensho’ Zen. Kensho means to know your true nature and this is practice with the intention of finding out that there never was a problem in the first place. In this talk, Daizan Roshi explains a little about the distinction and gets us to experience Kensho Zen by “si...2014-10-2200 minZenways Dharma TalksZenways Dharma TalksEstablishing and Optimising Your Daily PracticeWe live in an age of unprecedented freedom, safety and availability of knowledge. With that comes a level of responsibility to make the most of this opportunity. In this talk Daizan talks about how you can best establish your daily meditation practice through a commitment of 100 consecutive days. He then stresses how important it is to continue after this, and discusses some things you can do to help support this.2014-07-3000 minZenways Dharma TalksZenways Dharma TalksWashing the bowlOne day a new monk came to Zen master Joshu and said “I am a new trainee in the temple, can you give me some teaching?” Master Joshu said, “Have you eaten?” and the monk said “yes”, Joshu replied “then wash your bowl”. In this talk, Daizan Roshi explains some of the ways that this famous but very simple little interchange can be looked at, in terms of digesting and cleaning the ’stuff’ accumulated in our life, and how it can nourish us. He goes on to discuss some of these views in relation to the life story of his Zen teacher in Japan2014-07-2300 minZenways Dharma TalksZenways Dharma TalksSmiling from the heartZen divides the body into three zones: the neck upwards, which is the zone of awareness; the area from the neck to the navel, which is to do with connection; and the zone from the navel downwards, which is all about personal power. In this talk Daizan Roshi discusses the 2nd zone, which within Western culture isn’t terribly well understood and not discussed so much in Zen. He talks about finding a “smile in the heart” as a way of cultivating a positive, loving relationship with ourselves, with others, with organisations and within the broader sphere of our life in gen2014-06-2500 minZenways Dharma TalksZenways Dharma TalksBodaishin or Bodhicitta: your impulse to wake upDaizan talks about our innate human impulse to wake up - to understand the truth of who we are and how the universe is. In Buddhism this is called Bodhicitta, or in Japanese Bodaishin. Like each blade of grass has to push aside something like half a ton of earth to reach the sunlight, we are all powered by an energy greater than ourselves towards greater aliveness and awakeness. But how this manifests is unique to each of us.2014-05-2200 minZenways guided Zen meditationsZenways guided Zen meditationsMeditación contando las respiraciones en españolUna meditación zen contando las respiraciones (susokukan) en español, leída por Pablo Mokusei Pleguezuelo. www.zenways.org2014-04-1600 minZenways Dharma TalksZenways Dharma TalksLightening the loadDaizan talks about his early Zen practice and some of the challenges of meditation. He talks about how layers of frozen emotion and tightness that had accumulated over the years were gradually seen and released, resulting in a freeing up and opening of his body. This "lightening of our load" frees up energy to be positively used elsewhere. www.zenways.org2014-04-0600 minZenways Dharma TalksZenways Dharma TalksBeing not doing according to BankeiWe can think about our lives in two contrasting ways: in terms of ‘being’ and in terms of ‘doing’. In our lineage of Zen there are two great Zen masters each emphasising one of these two approaches: Hakuin (1686-1768) who taught a journey from point A through the process of practice to point B, and Bankei (1622-1693) who much more taught the ‘being’ aspect of practice. Some people find one perspective more helpful than the other. In this talk, Daizan Roshi shares some of his insights into Zen master Bankei’s ‘unborn’, ‘just being’ approach.2014-04-0200 minZenways guided Zen meditationsZenways guided Zen meditationsДзен-медитация "Счет Дыхания" на русском языке25-ти минутная медитация "Счет дыхания" (Сусокукан) на русском языке, читает Юлия Солф. www.zenways.org2014-03-2600 minZenways Dharma TalksZenways Dharma TalksPersonal accounts: Kim's storyIn this talk, Daizan discusses how people have been finding Zen practice useful in their lives. He relates the story of Kim, who suffered from periodic bouts of black moods, and how she used Zen practice to work through this. Not only has the practice dissipated these dark moods, but it has also opened up for her some deep insights into the nature of herself and the Universe.2014-03-1900 minZenways guided Zen meditationsZenways guided Zen meditations日本語では「数息観」という、呼吸を数える禅瞑想マシュー・ケインがガイドします、日本語では「数息観」という、呼吸を数える25分間の禅瞑想. www.zenways.org2014-03-1900 minZenways guided Zen meditationsZenways guided Zen meditationsEine Atem-zähl Meditationsanleitung des Zen gelesen in deutscher SpracheEine 25 Minuetige Atem-zähl Meditationsanleitung des Zen (susokukan) gelesen in deutscher Sprache von Alex Kofuu Reinke. www.zenways.org2014-03-1200 minZenways guided Zen meditationsZenways guided Zen meditationsMeditazione Zen guidata contando il respiro in ItalianoMeditazione Zen guidata contando il respiro (susokukan), di 25 minuti, in Italiano, letta da Mary D'Angelo. www.zenways.org2014-03-0500 minZenways guided Zen meditationsZenways guided Zen meditationsMéditation Zen guidée comptant les respirations en FrançaisMéditation Zen guidée de 25 min en comptant les respirations (susokukan) en français, lue par Judith Charron. www.zenways.org2014-02-2600 minZenways guided Zen meditationsZenways guided Zen meditationsZen counting the breath meditation in EnglishA 25 min guided Zen breath counting meditation (susokukan) in English, read by Julian Daizan Skinner. www.zenways.org2014-02-1900 min
