Receiving Precepts of Radical Relationality: by Charlie Korin Pokorny
Thursday, 2 April, 2026
Recorded on March 20, 2026 during the three-day sesshin in preparation for the Jukai ceremony for receiving the Bodhisattva Precepts, at Boundless Mind Temple, Brooklyn, NY. In this first dharma talk of the sesshin, Charlie Korin Pokorny explores Jukai as a ceremony of bearing witness to radical relationality, and of asking how to allow one’s life to become a testament to the reality of non-separation. Charlie reads from and comments on the article, “Witnessing Subjectivity,” by philosopher and scholar Kelly Oliver. The article can be accessed here: https://web.archive.org/web/20151123081543/http://as.vanderbilt.edu/philosophy/people/facultyfiles/oliver-witnessing_subjectivity.pdf The BZC Podcast is offered free of charge and made possible by the donations we receive.
