Many have heard of Dogen’s famous teaching “think non-thinking.” Do non-doing is similar, encompassing all of our activity. This kind of thinking and doing is beyond thinking and not-thinking, beyond doing and not-doing -- beyond our ego-centric, conditioned mind.

In this talk during our summer retreat, Gyodo Sensei encourages us to embrace this spirit of non-doing. To throw ourselves in to whatever we are doing, without grasping, without resisting. Intimately connected, whole-hearted, open, and alive.
