The Dalai Lama has said, “My religion is kindness," suggesting that the core of spirituality is both beyond any particular religion and does not require religion. We explore, in a similar way, how the basics of Buddhist teachings and practices-- related to ethics, kindness and compassion, wisdom, and touching nibbana--can be understood and expressed in ordinary, everyday language and at its heart is both shared by other spiritual traditions and potentially beyond any particular tradition. The talk is followed by discussion.

Tonight we will talk about the unfolding and deepening of practice using a poem from 9th century Ch'an teacher Qingyuan Weixin:
"Before I entered the path, mountains were mountains and waters were
waters.
After I practiced for some time, mountains were no longer mountains and waters were no longer waters.
When I fully realized the Way, once again mountains were mountains and waters were waters."
