DHARMA TALK & meditation
Apr
16

DHARMA TALK & meditation

Zen Master Sebastian Rizzon explores the Zen koan “Where are you?” to reveal how false certainty, ego, and attachment keep us from seeing clearly. This talk is for anyone seeking deeper spiritual practice, freedom from mental clinging, and a more direct experience of truth, and it should be shown to viewers interested in Zen, meditation, awakening, self-inquiry, and practical Buddhist wisdom.

In this Dharma talk, Zen Master Sebastian Rizzon introduces don’t know mind as a living practice rather than a philosophical idea. Through guided meditation, koan practice, and clear teaching, he shows why spiritual growth is not about collecting more beliefs, rituals, or methods to hold onto, but about seeing what we cling to and learning to let go.

This talk also examines the difference between what people want and what they truly need, why popularity is not proof of truth, how teachers can fall into reinforcing attachment, and why real Zen training points beyond comfort toward liberation. Whether you are new to meditation or already walking a spiritual path, this teaching offers a direct reminder to return to presence, humility, and the courage to not know.

The Altar Of Self Love: A Sacred Dialogue with your Inner Child
Feb

The Altar Of Self Love: A Sacred Dialogue with your Inner Child

$40.00

Stop looking for love. Be with the one who's been there since the beginning: Your inner child.

This Valentine’s season, the Mind Light Way School of Zen invites you to the most important "date" of your life: a homecoming to your younger self. We often look for healing in others, but true transformation begins when we make amends with the child we once were.

The Experience: This is a 2-hour immersive "Somato-Sensory" journey designed to bypass the logical mind and speak directly to the heart. We will use:

  • Oxygen & Vibration: A deep-clearing breathwork session followed by a resonant Crystal Bowl sound bath to melt away "adult armor."

  • The Intuitive Dialogue: A unique writing practice using your non-dominant hand to allow your inner child to finally speak and be heard, while your dominant hand will represent the adult self in a sacred conversation.

  • The Altar Building: Using a photo of your younger self, you will learn to curate a sacred space for daily self-remembrance.

What’s Included in your $40 Investment: Your ticket isn't just for the session—it includes a Self-Love Altar Starter Kit to put together during the workshop and take home, featuring:

  • Rose Quartz: The stone of unconditional love.

  • Wound-Healing Crystals: Specially selected stones to support emotional recovery.

  • Ritual Candle: To light your path and anchor your intentions.

  • Guided Prayer: A take-home mantra to keep the connection alive.

What to Bring: Please bring a photograph of yourself as a child (any age that feels significant to you) and an open heart.

Location: Mind Light Way School of Zen 86 Joy St, Studio 5R, Somerville, MA (Follow the scent of incense and the sound of the bowls to find us!)

Reserve your spot today. Space is limited to ensure an intimate, safe environment for all.
