Day 2 meditation from A2Z's Kindness of the Ancestors retreat. Rev. offers commentary on Suzuki Roshi's "Take Care of Yourself."
Meditations in this series are from the last period each night. As such, they can range from guided meditations to readings (often, with commentaries) to inspired or dharmettes to round out that day's instructional or teaching points. As such, there often are pauses for reflections or to let the teachings sink in.
