One-pointed mind and wide-field mind

September 21, 2015 By colleenmbusch

Fire in the vicinity of Tassajara has me thinking of Abbot Steve and his wise leadership during the 2008 Basin Complex fire. I dug through my interview audio files to unearth this little Dharma gem, Abbot Steve talking about applied Zen in the realm of wildfire: “Detachment doesn’t mean that you separate yourself from things.”
