Talk 3 - The Boundless Qualities of the Heart Sesshin
Lekshe King Tamang is an ordained nun and Lama in the Shangpa Kagyu tradition. She has been practicing Buddhism in the Tibetan tradition since 1994. She completed a traditional, cloistered 3-year retreat in 2018 with her primary western teacher, Lama Michael Conklin. She is especially interested in deep retreat and the many opportunities in integration of practice into contemporary secular life. Lekshe is currently a resident of the Great Vow Monastery, from which she serves practitioners at Dekeling—a Portland-based meditation community that, since the advent of Covid, meets entirely online. https://www.dekeling.online/

Zen Reflections on the Four Noble Truths
Returning to the basics, Jogen Sensei addresses the Buddha's core teaching of the four noble truths. As with all the Buddha's teachings, the four truths point to an active experiential investigation. This teaching is medicine; we have to learn how to administer it skillfully and appropriately. On one level, the practice of meditation is a direct, intimate disclosure of these four truths, with each truth revealing a new perspective and insight. The traditional formulation of the four noble truths is as follows: 1) The truth of dukkha (suffering or dis-ease); 2) The truth of craving (tanha) as the cause of suffering; 3) The truth of the end of suffering; 4) The truth of the eightfold path as the way to liberation from suffering
