Zen and Political Activism

Most folks think of Buddhism as Buddha sitting and doing nothing. Buddha did sit UNTIL he was enlightened and then he got off his behind and was an active teacher and traveler for the rest of his long life. The Dali Lama has said “It is not enough to be compassionate, one must act.” This blog will discuss how to act in the USA in way that is compatible with the Zen tradition. Your thoughts are welcome!!
