The Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara reached enlightenment by “perceiving the sounds of the world.” Guo Gu introduces two methods for contemplating sound. The first is to use a particular sound as an object of meditation. The second is to be aware of the sounds during daily life. In both instances it is important to put most of our attention on relaxing and grounding the body.

This video is the second in a series of commentaries by Guo Gu on "The Heart Sutra", one of the shortest Mahayana scriptures that expound the core message of Buddhism. The Heart Sutra is also one of the most important scriptures in the Chan/Zen tradition. The series will continue every first Monday of each month and will last until 2024. Each talk will be independent, but we encourage you and your friends to attend all sessions. During these Monday sits, we will begin with a short period of meditation followed by the Dharma talk. There will be opportunity to ask questions and to socialize a bit after the talk.
