Daizan explains what a Dharma battle (Hossen) is and how it is a highly useful tool in zen, much like sparring is to a martial artist.

As someone who was brought up in the 1980s on a viewing diet of reruns of 'Monkey Magic' on BBC2, the term 'dharma battle' sometimes disappoints when actual flying kicks and staff fights don't occur. I live in hope however.

Yes, back in the early 90's "The mind that sees into the flux of arising and decaying and recognizes the transient nature of the world is also known as the Bodhi-mind. Why, or how, then, can we call this transient mind Bodhi-mind? When the transient nature of this world is finally recognized, the ordinary selfish mind ceases to arise; as well as the mind that seeks after its own fame and profit - this is Bodhi-mind." Gakudo-Yojinshu
