“Gazing beyond any precipitous barriers, within the field, plough the clouds and sow the moon.”
Cultivating the Empty Field—after Hongzhi is an invitation and meditation. Grounded in, and directly referencing the assembled teachings of the same name by Chinese Zen master Hongzhi Zhengjue, this book is an expression and celebration of the liberation of “silent illumination” or shikantaza, (“just sitting”).
