The Village Zendo’s virtual zendo is privileged to present, “Why Zen?,” a dharma talk in which Roshi Enkyo asks why do we take up the practice of Zen, and what changes for us when we do? Isn’t it a recognition of our own heart, our own wholeness? In fact, our practice is a kind of medicine, as told in the old story of Sudhana picking up a blade of grass and recognizing the power of our rather simple practice.
