Bill Tetsui Press’ year as Head Trainee will culminate in the ancient ceremony of Dharma Combat with the Sangha. The Head Trainee will present a case (koan) from the Book of Equanimity to the Sangha, offer brief comments, and then challenge the dragons and elephants (you!) to dharma combat, in which everyone is invited to test their understanding. This is an important rite of passage for the Head Trainee and Sangha, so please come support this practice effort. In-person attendance strongly encouraged.
