Summary: On the first day of the Young Adult sesshin at Upaya, Sensei Matthew Kozan Palevsky explores each of the Four Great Bodhisattva vows. He helps us understand what is meant by “creations,” and crowdsources examples of “delusions,” as well as quoting Norman Fischer Roshi about our daily experience of suffering, which runs counter to our deeply held conviction that life should not include suffering. He opens and concludes with quotes from Suzuki Roshi in Zen Mind Beginner’s Mind.<br>
