Joan Hogetsu Hoeberichts, Roshi - Full Interview - Anatomy of Awakening

This is an excerpt from the "Anatomy of Awakening" course, a fundraiser for the Awakening Dharma Retreat Center and available for purchase at: https://awakeningdharma.org/anatomy-o... "Anatomy of Awakening" is a series of in-depth interviews with leading spiritual teachers, exploring what it means to awaken, and the skillful practices used to do so. Our approach is straightforward. We ask leading teachers to express what awakening means in their tradition or traditions, to describe the specific practices and training, pivotal in their own journey, and the skillful means they rely on to help others open to their true nature. Our guests for this first series of interviews are some of the leading teachers of Buddhism and non-dual mindfulness in North America and Europe. Our intention for each interview is to bring new insights into both traditional spiritual practices and evolving innovations now available to each of us. Awakening is what happens when we discover who we really are in the deepest spiritual sense. Awakening can happen to anyone, but for most of us it takes real effort and training. The methods that define the Buddhist path to awakening date back 2,500 years and have been passed on from teacher to student ever since. In this series, leading teachers from several spiritual traditions speak openly about their own experiences and how they guide students on the journey to awakening.
