In the Pagoda Park for Many Sons, the World-Honored-One was talking to the inhabitants of the Human and Heaven Worlds, when Venerable Mahakasyapa arrived late. The World-Honored-One moved aside to share his seat with him. Everyone was amazed.
Once Venerable Master Song-Wol was asked about "the essence of sharing the seat with Mahakasyapa" by a student. He said,
Blue dragon on left, white tiger on right.
But I would say,
Two times four is naturally eight.
© 2024 Honora Zen Monastery
The Honora Zen Monastery is currently only open for consultation hours by appointment only. The meditation stay is exclusively available to those who have already completed a retreat week or friends of the family.
Zen Master Reding and his three boys are looking for a good, loyal, trustworthy and faithful soul for the Zen monastery and the family. Contact us without obligation. Contact us anytime.
The balancing act between running a monastery and family life is not always easy to master. The Honora Zen Monastery is therefore looking for an additional home so that both can be carried out more easily. Such as a castle, a hotel, a monastery, a farm, a seminar house or similar properties for the monastery.
