Listen "Nansen Draws a Circle - Hekiganroku 69"
Episode Synopsis
What trickery makes a Zen student or a skeleton baby of slaves free?
This episode takes us on a journey through the Zen koan "Nansen draws a circle," exploring liberation in unexpected places like slave ships to the middle of COVID-19 pandemic. Join us as we uncover how Zen teachings can offer tools for resilience and hope in our shared journey while acknowledging our layers of trauma and the need for larger socio-political change.
Sensei Kanko gave this talk during the Fall 2022 Zen retreat (sesshin).
