Dharma Discourse by Geoffrey Shugen Arnold, Sensei

Who can say how we came to be who we are? The workings of cause and effect are incredibly subtle, but Shugen Sensei teaches that when we deeply clarify what our life is about, this intention infuses everything. Then there's no need to be consumed with planning or strategizing, and we can finally relax.

The koan in this talk is Case 28 from The Transmission of the Light, "Prajnatara." It was given at ZCNYC on November 27, 2010.
