Fall Practice Period 2024: Meeting The Ancestors

In this opening session of the Fall Practice Period the guiding teachers, Senseis Shinzan, Monshin and Kozan set the tone for the coming weeks of communal practice. Shinzan speaks to the ubiquity of ‘Zen’ products and commodification of mindfulness. He points at the rare opportunity to practice Zen together in an authentic and direct way. Monshin and Kozan share their encouragements for wholehearted practice before the Shuso (head student) ceremony. To access the resources page for this program, please sign up by clicking here.
