Everything we experience is through the mind. Because of this the mind is also the creator of our experience. When we let mind ramble on with out notice or control then you might understand how this effects our experience. Also, Lotus geeks out…

After giving a seven week class on Buddhist Psychology, Lotus gives a new talk on the illusion of control. Although we as a society have become good at controlling a lot of our environment to improve our lives it’s also a major source of our suffering.

It not enough to just go through the motions. To have real insight with the Zen practice it must be done with true diligence. Lotus talks about what diligence is and it’s importance.

The Zen practice is to be absolutely and completely in the moment. Such a simple way but all the different ways we complicate it.

In this talk Lotus goes in depth about what Karma is and how habits relate to it.
