| 4/2/26 | Mind The Gap: Realigning Our Habits [Throwback Dharma ] | Do your actions always align with your wishes?

| 3/25/26 | Even in the Shadow The Moon is Full | In this insightful Dharma talk, Eric Priest explores the delicate distinction between our true nature and the ego. Using the classic Zen analogy, he reminds us that while our ego may point toward the truth, it is merely the finger pointing at the moon—not the moon itself. Eric cautions practitioners against the subtle traps of the spiritual path, where one might mistake a fleeting moment of insight for mastery. Just as tasting a slice of cake does not make one a chef, clinging to spiritual ideas does not constitute realization. He emphasizes that true spiritual progress is found not in the concepts we hold, but in the sincere actions we take in our daily lives. Join us as we reflect on how to move beyond the delusions of the "self" and ground our practice in lived experience. | — | ||||||
