Shinzen talks about the "final cause" of enlightenment, and the historical person illustrated in the tenth ox-herding picture, the cloth-bag monk. He shares various examples of how retreat participants will be sharing gifts in the "marketplace" - the final goal of meditation practice. Filmed in Sanata Barbara in January 2009.
Thanks very much!
