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.
