Retreat Talks

Yesterday some of us from the West Wight Sangha travelled into Newport to join the Soto Zen group for a day's meditation retreat, the following two talks were used.

The first, "Wisdom and Compassion", is by Swiss dharma teacher Ursula Flückiger.

The second is by Jeffrey Schneider and is entitled "There is No God and No Soul". Unfortunately the sound quality is not great but the talk is well worth listening to.
