Dharma Talks by Vanessa Zuisei Goddard

Placing Ourselves in Suchness, Part 1

 
field of grass: field of perception

Do we know things as they truly are, or as our ideas and perceptions of what they might be?

In this talk, Zuisei speaks on a concept from Yogachara’s philosophies of consciousness , wherein the first field of perception is the “field of suchness”— where we perceive reality directly.

Cultivating this discernment between truth and perception is an ongoing practice— one that ultimately opens us up to liberation.
