What supports the expansion of my awareness and generosity? Zazen.

A faithful practice of study and mediation, spiritual friendships, Sesshin, Commit to Sit, and seeing all beings and circumstances as teachers supports the expansion of my awareness and generosity. It is a continuous practice. Pausing is also extremely supportive. Embracing discomfort. Remembering the impermanence of all things and the state of our interbeing.

So much support for the expansion of my awareness and generosity! It is a wonder I am not more aware and generous!

Thank you, Koshin, for the delicious teaching.

The concept of social stinginess really resonates in the current climate especially so. Sharing a problem of your own or someone else’s is something that enriches the community, giving an opportunity to help each other over hurdles and challenges together. We forget that when we isolate we take away opportunity for compassionate action.
