Loving Such a World as Ours: Dongshan’s Five Ranks and The Jewel Mirror

What world is reflected when we look into the mirror? How do we begin to relieve suffering amid such political divisiveness and climate disruptions? Our 9th century ancestor, Dongshan Liangjie maps out a poetic path for us on this journey to “save all beings.”

Classes will consist of four lectures with group discussion. One can attend both in- person or online (Zoom).

Sunday, Oct 27, 10-11:30 am at SCZC and via Zoom
