51 - Profound, Practical, Mutable: Dharma Transmission in Zen – Part 1

The Zen Studies Podcast

In Soto Zen Buddhism, "Dharma Transmission" is a ritual in which a qualified Zen teacher acknowledges the ability of one of their students to carry on the lineage tradition of Zen. In this episode I introduce you to the practice, including a description of my own experience of it, the criteria for giving it, the great variability in how it's viewed and used, and the sense in which it's about two individuals mutually recognizing awakened mind in each other.
