Earth as Koan, Earth as Self – A Conversation with Susan Murphy Roshi

What becomes possible, especially in the face of crisis, when we
orient our consciousness towards uncertainty, emptiness, and a
sense of relationship with the world beyond the self? In this
week’s conversation, Australian writer and Zen teacher Susan Murphy
Roshi immerses us in the tradition of Zen koan and its ability to
shift our consciousness amid crisis. Delving into the power of the
not-knowing mind, Susan presents koan as a gateway to truly
connecting with the world around us, and speaks to how we must
respond to our moment of suffering from a place of openness if we
are to remember our seamlessness with all of creation. Read the
