One of the great pleasures of immersing yourself in Zen is getting to know the ancestors. In this talk we meet Linji, the inspiration behind Rinzai Zen, who opened up the path of practice with a great shout, beyond words and letters. This talk was given as part of a wider series on the Zen ancestors, hosted by Susan Murphy Roshi and Zen Open Circle.

With two sangha members about to begin the process of Jukai, we explore The Three Vows of Refuge and The Three Pure Precepts with some help from an old monk sitting high up in an old even older pine tree. Is it really possible to take refuge in precarity? Is it really possible to praise the mutilated world? What do we undertake when we take the Buddhist Precepts to heart? This talk was given in Castlemaine as part of our monthly Teisho and Inquiry.
