Join Roshi Allison Atwill to explore awakening as a great voyage, one that is entirely your own, and yet in which you are somehow accompanied by the entire universe.

Atwill tells the riveting story of one sailor's solo journey around Cape Horn and reveals how, in the end, he gives up on the mind that races and compares, and turns toward Tahiti...a beacon for his true nature.

What does it mean to give up on the project of improving and protecting the self? How does Zen Buddhism help us navigate a path to freedom?

Each person takes the voyage of awakening alone and in some sense entirely accompanied by the universe." - Allison Atwill.
