In this talk, Jōmon explores the deep connection between gratitude, generosity, and Dōgen’s teaching of identity action—acting together as one body. Through reflections on Sōtō Zen practice, stories from contemporary teachers, and an extended look at the life and writings of Etty Hillesum, this episode invites us to discover the continuous availability of spiritual practice in every moment of our lives.
This talk was given during the 2025 Gratitude Sesshin.
