Abbot Gaelyn Godwin : Decorating Reality, Understanding Emptiness

Gaelen’s talk about everything is on fire is just another example of how gifted she is at speaking.  It is a very special thing to go to the Houston Zen Center and hear Gaelen or any of their speakers give a Dharma talk.
It is a lovely place for coming back to now!  I’m so happy to have found their podcast so that I can listen to the Dharma talk when I can’t actually be with them. Thank you HZC!
