The No-Rank Zendo Podcast

In this Teisho, given on August 10th, 2022, Rinzan Osho continues his examination of the Ten Grave Precepts with Teisho on the Second Precept: "We will respect others’ property; we will not steal." All religions hold the value that one should not steal. In the Buddhist tradition, this precept can also be held as "not taking what is not freely given." Working deeply with this precept, we can learn the principles of restraint, sharing, sympathetic joy and of not needing to have.
