Dharma Talk Series: The Unborn by Reverend Master Eko Little
Great Master Bankei taught the Unborn Buddha-mind of illuminative wisdom, nothing else. He maintained that everyone is endowed with this Buddha-mind though most don't know it. In 2003 Rev. Master Eko gave eight retreat Dharma Talks exploring the teachings of Zen Master Bankei and their meaning for us in our contemporary life. Bankei, who lived in Japan nearly 300 years ago, was often described as an eclectic Zen master. But his teachings are fundamental and profound.
He spoke to monastics. And he spoke directly to the ordinary people of this time, from nearly every segment of Japanese society, in plain and direct language out of his own experience in finding the way. Underlying all his teaching is his own unsurpassable peace that is reflected in his certainty that"...all is resolved in the Unborn.”
