Seicho's Dharma talk, “Serving Up Nonviolence,” Jan 26, 2025

The Village Zendo's virtual zendo is privileged to present, “Serving Up Nonviolence,” a dharma talk in which senior student Seicho explores the question of how do we detoxify a stew of greed, hate, and delusion in ourselves and in the world into a supreme meal that serves everyone? Dogen and an old woman by the side of the road show us how to respond to challenging times with nonviolence, which transforms through mutual accountability.
