10am – 12pm Sunday Service – Koshin: That’s Just Disgusting

February 6, 2022 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

People sitting in meditation inside the Puget Sound Zen Center.

Our Sunday service consists of chanting, two periods of sitting meditation, and a dharma talk.

A monk asked Yunmen,”What is Buddha?” Yunmen answered, “Dried shit.”

According to a recent New York Times Magazine article, the impulse of disgust and strong aversion affects our lives in profound and not always helpful ways.

Buddhism and Zen has been working with purity and disgust for a long time, and may be able to help in surprising ways.
