Download Most Intimate: A Zen Approach to Life's Challenges AudioBook Free
For Roshi Pat Enkyo O'Hara, intimacy is what Zen practice is focused on: the realization of the fundamental lack of differentiation between do it yourself and other that inevitably causes wisdom and compassionate action. She approaches the practice of intimacy starting at its most basic level - the intimacy with ourselves this is the essential first step. She then shows how to bring intimacy into our connections with others, you start with those dearest to us and moving on to people who don't seem to be dear whatsoever. She then shows how to expand in intimacy so that people include everyone all around us, all of society, depends upon and all the beings it includes. Each section is combined with procedures she uses with her students at the Town Zendo for manifesting intimacy in our lives.
