All Buddhas are True Adults | Koshin Paley Ellison
“How can I arouse the spirit of reconciliation and harmony right now?”In this recent dharma talk, Koshin Sensei invites us to reflect on what it means to truly grow up and live with wisdom. Quoting Uchiyama Roshi, the author of this summer Commit to Sit's (https://www.zencare.org/commit-to-sit-summer-2025) guiding text, he reminds us that while we may look like adults, our hearts and our behavior often remain immature.Koshin also reflects on how, even in times of conflict and pain, we can choose harmony over division. After speaking with sangha members in Israel and Iran, both asking how not to create enemies, he encourages us to pause and ask ourselves: “How can I arouse the spirit of reconciliation and harmony right now?”May we have the courage to turn inward and live with greater peace.
