| The Precepts and True Expression
The Grail, Cornwall-on-Hudson
August 8-14 Led by Dharma-Holder, Barbara Joshin O'Hara

Rather than a set of strict rules to be rigidly adhered to, the precepts are a description of what Is. Yet, our appreciation of the free-flow of reality is hampered by the fixed narratives we impose, the reliable outcomes we demand, the insistence on our own separateness. Following the Ango schedule of daily zazen, work and body practice, this workshop-retreat will use art as a medium to ground our awareness of the moment, investigate our habitual reactions and allow the precepts to teach us. A day trip to Storm King Sculpture Park or the Dia Art Center is included. Please bring any art supplies or materials you might like to use. No prerequisites necessary. Beginners are welcome. Those taking jukai will take a separate workshop on the precepts.
