When people hear of the 9th precept, "Not to indulge in anger but to practice forbearance" they often ask, "But what about injustice? There is so much to be angry about." The late Rita Gross, feminist scholar and activist, writes about how her response to injustice became clearer and more skilful after she took up meditation.

"It's not a good meditation when you are having fewer thoughts, it is not a bad meditation when you are having more thoughts or wilder thoughts. Really what Zen talks about is the limitation of just focusing on thoughts. Most of the time we are lost in our thoughts - we focus exclusively on our thoughts with much less attention to sensations, to perceptions of the world." Episode Description: Dr. Waldinger is a psychiatrist/psychoanalyst and a Zen teacher and priest. We begin by distinguishing between an Eastern and Western way of approaching the mind. Dr. Waldinger describes his journey of becoming both a Zen Priest and a Zen instructor and the differing tasks involved with each. He compares his psychodynamic approach with his Zen approach to individuals who are suffering. He explains the Buddhist approach to thoughts, sensations and worries with particular reference to the relationship between a Zen teacher and student. We close by reviewing his personal path that has led him to be attuned to the transience of life. Our Guest: Robert Waldinger, MD is a psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, Zen priest, and Zen teacher. He is a Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and directs the Harvard Study of Adult Development, one of the longest-running studies of adult life ever done. The Study tracked the lives of 724 men for over 80 years and now studies their Baby Boomer children to understand how childhood experience reaches across decades to affect health and wellbeing in middle age. He writes about what science can teach us about healthy human development, and he is the Founding Director of the Lifespan Research Foundation, dedicated to bringing the insights of lifespan research to the general public. His TED talk about this research, titled “What Makes a Good Life?”, is one of the 10 most viewed TED talks of all time. Dr. Waldinger directs the teaching program in psychodynamic psychotherapy at the Massachusetts General Hospital Psychiatry Residency in Boston.

Chiyono experiences enlightenment when the bottom falls out of her water bucket. How do we break out of fixed ways of seeing ourselves and framing the world? Absorption in a koan is a tried and tested way. Main text: The Hidden Lamp, Stories from Twenty-Five Centuries of Awakened Women edited by Florence Caplow and Susan Moon
In this conversation with Gordon Marvin we talk about a landslide that ripped through his community, Stump Acres, near Umpqua Oregon in 1996. It came out of a 9-year-old clearcut above their property, and killed 4 people, including Gordon’s wife, Sharon Marvin, and his two friends Rick and Susan Moon. I was unsuccessful in getting someone from the Oregon Department of Forestry to talk to us about how logging rules changed as a result of this slide, to now include a (small) public safety component.Gordon and I cover some additional private-land logging issues, including aerial spray rules. Public notice for aerial spraying has recently been strengthened. You can read about that here: https://www.wildsalmoncenter.org/2020/02/10/what-is-the-new-oregon-timber-pact/?emci=b3c4dbbc-fcb7-ea11-9b05-00155d039e74&emdi=ea000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001&ceid=or listen to an interview with Ralph Bloomers who talks about it on this show earlier this year. We also talk about the FERNS reporting system, where the public can sign up to receive all logging notices in places important to them, such as their home.FERNS can be accessed here. https://ferns.odf.oregon.gov/E-Notification/

Description: When we are torn, when our longings pull us in different directions, when we feel pinned on the horns of some dilemma, or literally in two minds about something, what is our True Self? Main Text(s) quoted: The Hidden Lamp, Stories from 25 Centuries of Awakened Women, edited by Florence Caplow and Susan Moon.
Kakuzan Shido, founder of Tokei-ji, challenged about her ability to teach, brings forth a dagger. Was her act a violent one? What role do such extreme actions play in Zen? What role does pressure (external and internal) play in Zen, and in life? Why are koans so difficult? Text(s) quoted: The Hidden Lamp, Stories from 25 Centuries of Awakened Women, edited by Florence Caplow and Susan Moon.
What is the enlightenment referred to in the story? What do we mean when we talk about enlightenment and kensho? Do these terms as they are used in the Three Pillars of Zen, mislead us? Roshi Sunyana Graef’s comments on how the kensho accounts affected the first generation of Roshi Kapleau’s students. Text(s) quoted: The Hidden Lamp, Stories from 25 Centuries of Awakened Women, edited by Florence Caplow and Susan Moon. Zen Teaching, Zen Practice, edited by Kenneth Kraft
A continuation of the above. Kensho as a third step of the Ten Oxherding Pictures. Text(s) quoted: The Hidden Lamp, Stories from 25 Centuries of Awakened Women, edited by Florence Caplow and Susan Moon. Zen Teaching, Zen Practice, edited by Kenneth Kraft
Putting kensho in perspective; the importance of cultivating compassion as well as wisdom. Text(s) quoted: The Hidden Lamp, Stories from 25 Centuries of Awakened Women, edited by Florence Caplow and Susan Moon. Zen Teaching, Zen Practice, edited by Kenneth Kraft
Shotaku, third abbess of Tokei-ji, fends off an armed attacker with nothing more than a rolled up piece of paper and the force of her finely honed ki. Acknowledging our fears, we can act with courage, training ourselves to respond one-hundred-percent we can discover fearlessness, prior to the arising of thought. Text(s) quoted: The Hidden Lamp, Stories from 25 Centuries of Awakened Women, edited by Florence Caplow and Susan Moon.
Prompted by a teisho from Master Hakuin, an old woman looks deeply into her heart day and night until she sees her own mind as the Pure Land, her body as that of Amitabha Buddha. She sees the great light that shines out of everything. Hakuin tests her by scoffing and asking, “Does it shine even out of your arsehole?” She pushes him and exclaims, “I can see that you’re not enlightened yet!”. What does she mean? Text(s) quoted: The Hidden Lamp, Stories from 25 Centuries of Awakened Women, edited by Florence Caplow and Susan Moon.
