Inscribing Trust in the Heart - Jogen Salzberg, Sensei

In this talk, Jogen Sensei explores the opening stanzas of Affirming Faith in Mind , illuminating what the poem calls “the Great Way”—life itself, unobscured by picking and choosing. Through clear examples of conditioned happiness, the wobbling of preference, and the subtle ways we strobe in and out of wholehearted engagement, he shows how resistance divides us from the peace inherent in each moment. Jogen emphasizes that dropping even slight distinctions allows the spacious, undivided nature of experience to appear, revealing the “one taste” running through all conditions. With warmth and humor, he invites practitioners to directly feel life as it is, free from the mind’s disease of constant like-and-dislike. ★ Support this podcast ★
