| Seven Points for Training the Heart | |||
|
A five day retreat at Tassajara Zen Mountain Center
Explore the rich territory of practice in everyday life through Seven Points for Training the Heart, a famous Indo-Tibetan text. |
|||
|
Zen practice has more to say about meditation practice than about the details of how to apply meditation to your emotional life. We'll take a Zen-inspired look at a traditional Indo-Tibetan text that speaks directly to this point. The text includes 59 pithy practice points that we will talk about and meditate on.
