Show Notes

This episode and the last, "Dharma Study: Wrestling with the Teachings," comprise chapter four of my book, The Ten Fields of Zen Practice: A Primer for Practitioners. In the last episode, Part 1, I talked about the value of Dharma Study and how best to approach it. Then I discussed how to go about deciding what you want to study. In this episode I offer a list of eight fundamental teachings I recommend becoming familiar with, along with suggested texts to begin your investigation of each topic. I'll end with a discussion of how to engage the teachings you study in a meaningful way.
