Come, come, whoever you are.
Wanderer, worshipper, lover of leaving.
It does not matter.
Ours is not a caravan of despair.
Come, even if you have broken your vow a thousand times.
Come, yet again, come.

Mondo Zen
Much of the suffering we experience comes from the thoughts and feelings we ascribe to the events in our lives to protect our egos and notions of self. The Mondo Zen Koan process offers a different view of self and a way to discern the real messages from our emotions, revealing the deep care that underlies all our negative reactivity. It offers a way to alleviate suffering and meet the challenges of life with more wisdom and compassion.
