Losing Your Body and Your Life
Episode 14
Saturday, 13 September, 2025

Paul takes us on a deep dive into the 22nd koan in the Hekigan Roku: "Seppo's Turtle-Nosed Snake". Dealing with living, dying and Reality, this abstruse yet powerful koan can be penetrated by a close and careful look at the code-language and strange events depicted therein. Through this process, we learn how to work with the more puzzling Zen teaching stories and uncover their profound implications. This talk was presented by Paul Gerstein at the September 14, 2025 Living Dharma Center virtual zazenkai.
