Exploring the ‘Wild’
Exploring the ‘Wild’
Dear Everyone,
Living in Stanley, Idaho, elevation 6,275', is a gift during these times. I'll be here until 1st November in retreat offering meditation only Thursday evening and Saturday morning. If you're interested, please email and online instructions will be sent. May all beings be well now and in the weeks to come.
With bows,
Jisen

‘To be truly free one must take on the basic conditions as they are—painful, impermanent, open, imperfect—and then be grateful for impermanence and the freedom it grants us. For in a fixed universe there would be no freedom. With that freedom we improve campsites, teach children, oust tyrants. The world is nature, and in the long run inevitably wild, because the wild, as the process and essence of nature, is also an ordering of impermanence.
