Other talks from Adhisthana
In 1965 Sangharakshita gave a series of talks on the 'The Essence of Zen', each taking its title from a line of a verse of Zen poetry -
A special transmission outside the scriptures
No dependence on words and letters
A direct pointing to the mind of man
Seeing into one's own nature and realising Buddhahood
In this talk Sraddhapa gives a brief history of this verse in the Chinese Chan tradition.
A talk given on the Essence of Zen weekend at Adhisthana, 2019.
