In this powerful teisho, Sensei Sōen Michael Brunner invites us to stop searching for what has never been lost. Drawing from Case 67 of the Book of Equanimity—The Avatamsaka Sutra’s Wisdom—he illuminates the truth that all beings are already endowed with the Tathagata’s wisdom and virtue. But because of deluded thoughts and attachments, we fail to realize it. Sensei explores the metaphor of Indra’s Net, the reality of karmic momentum, and Dōgen’s teaching on traceless enlightenment, urging us to release our stories, identities, and self-made obstacles. Even our delusions, fears, and wounds become gates to liberation when held with awareness. This talk reminds us that awakening isn’t somewhere else—it’s here, in each breath, step, and moment. The priceless jewel has already been sewn into our robe. What will you do with it?
