Facing Your Lion: A Story from Persia and Reflections on Courage

2026-02-25

Roshi Sunya Kjolhede tells a story of prince from Persia who must rouse his courage and face a terrifying lion to become king. In much the same way, we muster our courage in practice to face whatever comes our way. To donate or learn more about Sunya-roshi & Lawson-roshi, and Windhorse's Dharma work in Western North Carolina (and beyond), please go to windhorsezen.org
