Held in the Vastness — So-on Eli Brown-Stevenson — Dharma Talk at Green Gulch Farm

This dharma talk was given at at Green Gulch Farm Zen Center, by So-on Eli Brown-Stevenson. Using somatic meditation, the image of the hand, and Zen teachings on non-separation, this Dharma talk explores how we move from contraction and self-protection toward a more open participation in reality, compassion, and ordinary mind. Drawing on Zen practice, cosmology, and embodiment, the talk reflects on what it means to relate more intimately with ourselves, one another, and the universe itself.
