In this 2026 Sound Sesshin talk, Hogen explores the profound immediacy of our lived experience, showing how attention to the present moment reveals the mind’s intimate connection with the world. Drawing on Zen teachings and stories of historical practitioners, he emphasizes that awareness, gratitude, and surrender to what is allow us to see our true nature and respond to life with clarity and compassion. By resting in the dynamic “is-ness” of each moment, we cultivate stability, insight, and the capacity to act in service of others.
