The True Self Is Egoless – Meditation Checkup: Lead with the Body and Physical Stillness

Moving on from an exploration of the origins and meanings of common Buddhist principles, Professor Davis introduces the first of three lessons focused on the philosophical core of Zen Buddhism—which he admits, up front, may be the most intellectually and emotionally challenging. The crux of this lesson focuses around how we are not, and can never be, exactly the beings we deeply desire to be, and how the true self may be ungraspable.
