Rev. Clairissa looks at what it means to undertake the spiritual journey, outwardly and inwardly, as we open to setting out into the unknown and following the path as it unfolds before us – a “Pilgrimage of the Heart.” She refers to the teaching of Reverend Master Jiyu-Kennett on the purpose of meditation, and to the Rules for Meditation set out for us by Great Master Eihei Dōgen, founder of Sōtō Zen Buddhist practice in medieval Japan.
