We are seeking podcast support. Blue Collar Zen Podcast is a free offering, and we want to keep it that way, but need support. To date we have received less than $100 in podcast support.
We recently purchased a second mic and a mixer, and plan to offer a new episode each month. It takes a full day to produce each episode. Won't you give if you listen?!

LET GO
by Zen Master Daehaeng
A man journeys home through the misty mountains of old Korea. But as previous karma follows him, he meets with unexpected fortune, & terror. Letting Go, written by Zen Master Daehaeng, presents us with a story we can all relate to.

As an enlightened master, she taught for more than 40 years at the Han Ma Um Center (founded 1972), and broke many of the traditional roles in Korean Buddhism, by having both male & female disciples, and teaching that people from all walks of life could practice & awaken to their true nature.
