The Village Zendo Dharma Talks

I’m a DIY practitioner living a distance from any Buddhist Center. I’ve recently discovered The Village Dharma talks and I’ve been totally taken by the wise diversity of voices. As a public school kindergarten teacher of many years, I was delighted to hear today’s talk on The Dharma of Kindergarten. To paraphrase Roshi; “ The world is vast and wide, a formless field of benefaction.”🙏🏽☺️
