Zazenkai Schedule





Stacking our bones upright on the flat earth, We each dig a cave in space...

Master Tendo Nyojo, Teacher of Dogen Zenji



Zazenkai is a daylong opportunity to practice Zazen. It is a period of intense introspection. We will observe Mindful Silence throughout the day. This means we ask talking of any kind be kept to an absolute minimum and should only be done when asking for or receiving instruction. Zazen periods are 25 minutes with Kinhin in between.
