Blue Cliff Record, Case 91:
Yenkuan’s Rhinoceros
In this powerful talk, Ryushin Sensei hones in on the painful truth of our fascination with our attachments and the need for letting them go completely. This can seem like an impossible task, but the more clearly we can see ourselves and get out of our own way, the less we have to do except allow the deep transformation brought about by practice to unfold. This process requires bravery and the willingness to be completely honest with ourselves, so we may find the perfect note that expresses the unity and wholeness of our lives.
