Synopsis

"Have you ever heard anyone scratch their head and ask, why can't we all just get along? Have you ever wondered why it is that we fail to understand why we all can't just get along? What would it take to understand this? What do we each need to do to understand and clearly see why it is that we all can't just get along? Well, that's an even more interesting question.
In order to be healthy human beings, we need to heal. In order to fully heal, we must awaken. In order to fully awaken, we must also heal. It's so simple, for us to all get along we must heal and awaken.”

Doshin Roshi, Paths and Practices for Balance and Wholeness

After several years of development between Zen Master Doshin Roshi and Rev Shikyo following courses and Zen retreats focused on healing and teachings from Asian Medicine, what is presented is a unique approach for healing. This framework includes select Eastern and Western practices, methodologies, modalities and approaches, for returning to balance to a state of wholeness. What is offered are potentials, what works must be discovered by the individual, as the Buddha is said to have said, “that the heart knows the way, when the foot touches the ground.” After seeing remarkable healing in the people Doshin and Shikyo support, and at a time where people are overwhelmed by distorted, chaotic, fragmented information, it is important to point back to the Wisdom Traditions which have existed for not just thousands, but tens, if not hundreds of thousands of years. We invite you to discover that balance, healing, liberation, and unreasonable joy, await to be reclaimed within you.
