In this Teisho, given on March 1st, 2023, Rinzan Osho examines case number eighteen from the Mumonkan: "Three Pounds of Flax." Like a person facing their own death, when confronted with nothingness, the somethingness of life becomes brilliant and profound. Zen practice asks both that we engage the "nothing" and to open to the mysterious "something." We then thunk ourselves into life, taking responsibility for the gift of life, living it freely and fully.
