When we look deeply at Zen it is easy to see that truly, it is truly the practice of love. The practice of nurturing out lives and the lives of all we meet It may seem odd to think that love is a practice! Most think of it as a spontaneous arising of the heart, something that comes out of the blue. While that may be so, it is also important to prepare the soil of our lives for this great gift to flourish, for the flower of love to bloom. As we plant the seeds of love in a ripe soil that has been well prepared, and make sure to weed the garden, we are actually practicing love. Seeds tossed into a soil that is unprepared will not grow. Or, a plant, tree or love relationship that is starting to blossom may be cut short or even strangled by weeds that have not been pulled out. The practice of love assures us that we are providing favorable conditions that allow the best within ourselves and others to bloom naturally. Come listen to the podcast and discover more.
