<3 “Dead monks sitting in cave.” Really brings to life the importance and complimentary nature of a physical practice along with sitting mediation. Whenever I feel that dead-monk-in-a-cave sensation, I know it’s time to get up and do prostrations or dance. Thanks for this piece!

I first came across your work, Cristina, via the Love and Liberation podcast. This piece made me think of that interview, which I'll link to for other interested readers: https://oliviaclementine.com/cristina-moon-rinzai-zen-living-the-dharma-through-martial-arts/

(I hope you'll alert us to future podcast appearances as you tour your book!)

Thank you, John! No podcasts booked yet but I'm sure there will be at least a few in June and through the fall. I'll be sure to announce them!
