A student once asked Zen Master Seung Sahn, “How do we get wisdom?”  The Zen Master answered, “Don’t-know mind, together action, and correct kong-an practice.”

Together action gives us an opportunity to work together as a Sangha towards a common goal and, as Zen Master Dae Bong wrote, “an opportunity to understand ourselves and others better and to get wisdom.”
