Dear friends — Join us tomorrow for early morning meditation in the Open Temple.
Early Morning Meditation, Monday June 21:
Eastern Temple — Tess Beasley will welcome you in the Eastern Temple from 7-8am EDT (or 4-5am PDT) with a mystery koan from The Blue Cliff Record.
Western Temple — Chris Gaffney will hold a cushion for you in the Western Temple from 6-7am PDT (or 9-10am EDT) with Case #86 from The Blue Cliff Record.
Western Koan — Case #86: Yunmen Has a Light
Yunmen taught, “Everybody has a light inside. When you’re looking for it, you can’t see; it’s dark, dark, hidden. What is this light that everybody has?” He himself answered, “The kitchen pantry, the entrance gate.” Then he said, “It’s better to have nothing than something good.”
You're invited to attend any or all sessions in the Eastern and Western Temples.
With warm wishes,
Karin
