Dew on the Rose - Jomon Martin, Zen Teacher

This talk explores the Buddhist teaching of impermanence as the foundation of liberation and ethical living. Reflecting on the meaning of a “new year,” it examines how fixed ideas about self, time, and identity create suffering, and how seeing the fluid, moment-to-moment nature of experience opens creativity, responsibility, and freedom. Through teachings on letting go, vow, and integrity, the talk invites practitioners to align their deepest intentions with daily life, discovering how personal practice naturally becomes service to the world.
