Merle, The podcast of John's has the title "The Original Source". I found it.
A wonderful koan. A great story. A fine teaching. Subtle. Clear. I heard only four minutes of the podcast. The essential bit. I'll listen to the teisho on the Case (Roshi's talk) later. THAT'S my friend John. Tears sting the eyes. I'll listen more, later. Great to hear his voice. --Joe --- In [email protected], Merle Lester <merlewiitpom@...> wrote: > > i listened to john daido loori roshi... i became aware that the ink drop is > one drop 2 drops it becomes a dragon..then later one drop is a dragon...this > koan (am i correct in saying this) was absolutely a treat...joe listen to > it..he talks about painting.... i don't believe i am that far off the > track...john points out doubt is a big factor and always retain this..and > remain your own teacher in the end...i think i understood it as thus...thank > you for your patience, especially joe and mike...i am learning...we will see > were this leads me... i am surely at the cross roads and the road i take from > this day forth may it lead me well.... merle > > http://wzen.org/category/podcast/ ------------------------------------ Current Book Discussion: any Zen book that you recently have read or are reading!
