Joan Halifax Roshi on the truth of nonduality.
The roots of all living things are tied together. Deep in the ground
of being, they tangle and embrace. This understanding is expressed in
the term nonduality. If we look deeply, we find that we do not have a
separate self-identity, a self that does not include sun and wind,
earth and water, creatures and plants, and one another.Joan Halifax Roshi, Essential Zen (Harper Collins)

In our Spring 2000 issue, the scholar Alexander Berzin examined the guru-disciple relationship in the West. He wrote:
With a new millennium at hand, many Westerners called for a purely Western Buddhism, free of irrelevant religious and cultural trappings of the East. Differentiating the essence from the trappings, however, is never simple. People sometimes discard important [...]

Ever since Michael Jackson died last week, I can’t stop thinking about identity and how clinging to one—or several in his case— can bring much suffering. Yes, Michael was mesmerizing. But like the article, A Sequined Glove That Mesmerized the World, in the New York Times said last week, “There is no way to know [...]

Dharma, the truth of things-as-they-are, acts upon us to help us awaken to liberation. Dharma isn’t a person; it isn’t a being to be supplicated to. It’s just the way things work, the reality of the universe unfolding as a process in time. The Buddha discovered and taught about a portion of this universe, and [...]
The Dalai Lama interviewed by the late writer, actor, and performance artist Spalding Gray. This was from our first issue and the unconventional discussion set the tone for things to come. To wit:
Spalding Gray: Do you dream?
The Dalai Lama: Yes. A few days ago, for three nights in succession, I had some very clear dreams. [...]
Inspired by this morning’s Daily Dharma, I began to ponder just how overwhelming starting out on the path can be and, completely ignoring Dean Sluyter’s good advice, wondered what might be some tangible, helpful entry points to Buddhism. One such resource might be Tricycle’s Spring 1997 issue, Dharma 101: Back to Basics. What was your [...]
Don’t be overwhelmed by the number of teachers and teachings. Just start by doing a little bit of something, even five minutes of meditation, but do it every day…. Once you put one foot in front of another, the dharma path has a way of leading you where you need to go.
