Ordinary Practice: Dharma Talk at the Houston Zen Center
This is a talk I gave at the Houston Zen Cener on January 7, 2012. Todd Bankler came with me from Appamada and was able to experience temple life there and was at the talk.

Appamada is not just the occasional mindful thought or attentive state of mind, it’s actually a commitment to being attentive. It’s more than just a meditative state of mind, it’s more than just being mindful. It has to do with that primary ethical or moral orientation we have in life, with which we bring into being whatever activity we’re engaged in. Whether in formal meditation, in our interactions with other people, in our social concerns, or in our political choices, it’s the energetic cherishing of what we regard as good.
