Every Wednesday evening we gather for zazen on Zoom at 6:30 PM ET. Our sitting period is for about 25 minutes. This is followed most weeks by a short teisho (talk) given by one of our teachers. We then have a short closing period using a chant from our chant book.
Every Morning at 8:00 AM we have a half hour zazen period via Zoom, except when we have a Zazenkai. That is usually once a month, so please check the schedule below. It's a great way to begin your day.
Once a month at 8:00 AM on Saturdays we have the daily 25 min. zazen sit followed by a book discussion.
Next Zazenkai: April 18th. This will be a hybrid sit, both in person in Wrentham and online We will begin at 9:00 AM and conclude around 12:00. For people at the retreat house, we will have a bag lunch afterwards. A separate link will be sent out a week prior to everyone on our mailing list.
Next Book Discussion date: May 2nd . We will be continuing our new book: Listen to the Desert by Fr. Gregory Mayers. He is a Redemptorist priest who founded "The Contempative Path," an institute dedicated to the teaching and practice of contemplation and Zen. Please have read Chapter 3, pages 19-28. We will begin with a sit at 8:00 AM followed by the discussion. Please note that there will be no separate link for this as we will be using the daily sit link that always begins at 8:00.
