Podcasts about mumonkan

Ausgehend vom Koan 35 des Mumonkan beschäftigt sich Christoph Rei Ho Hatlapa mit der oft schmerzhaften Spaltung zwischen unserem angepassten Selbst und unserer lebendigen inneren Wahrheit. Wer sind wir wirklich – jenseits der Rollen, Erwartungen und Geschichten, die wir über uns selbst erzählen? Wie erwachen wir aus dem Wachkoma des Funktionierens? Anhand der rätselhaften Geschichte von Seijo wird deutlich, dass innere Heilung dort geschieht, wo verdrängte Erfahrungen gesehen, angenommen und mit Mitgefühl gehalten werden. Einfühlsames Zuhören kann dabei zu tiefgreifenden Wandlungen führen und abgespaltene Anteile wieder integrieren. Heilung geschieht jedoch nicht durch die Identifikation mit einer Seite, sondern durch die Fähigkeit, Gegensätze zu umfassen: Stärke und Verletzlichkeit, Persönlichkeit und Unpersönlichkeit, Anpassung und Freiheit. Wer die Welt annimmt, wie sie ist, kehrt zu seinem ursprünglichen Wesen zurück. Dieses Teisho wurde während eines Zen-Tages des Zenkreises Niederrhein (https://zenkreis-niederrhein.de) gehalten.

There are countless ways in which we can feel inwardly divided or somehow alienated from our true self. Case 35 of the Mumonkan, or Gateless Gate koan collection addresses this matter with a pointed question about Seijo, the character in a traditional Chinese story who ends up living parallel lives. The koan asks, "Which one is the true Seijo?" Naturally, the answer is "Both… and neither."

In Koan 12 des Mumonkan sowie in Fall 11 des Kattōshō ruft Zuigan Gen Osho sich täglich selbst: »Meister!« – und antwortet: »Ja, Herr!« Durch dieses Rufen und Antworten schult Zuigan seine Präsenz und vervollkommnet seine Meisterschaft. »Übung ist Erleuchtung, Erleuchtung ist Übung«, beschreibt es Dōgen. In jedem von uns steckt von Anfang an ein Meister, zu dem wir uns bemühen, den Kontakt aufzunehmen. Oft halten wir ihn jedoch für eine abgehobene Instanz und verwechseln ihn mit dem inneren Erzieher oder den zahllosen anderen Aspekten unseres Ichs. Wir sind so sehr mit ihnen beschäftigt, dass die Ebene des inneren Meisters im Schatten bleibt. Erst wenn wir mutig vor unsere inneren Wächter hintreten und mit ihnen verhandeln, erfahren wir, was sie brauchen, damit sie uns vorbeilassen. Dieser Prozess ebnet nach und nach den Weg zum inneren Meister, sodass wir uns diese wunderbare Instanz in uns ergründen können.
