Summer Zazenkai: A One Day Meditation Retreat
July 22, 2023
7:00am - 5pm
Zazen is going right into the Ocean of Awareness, manifesting the body of all Buddhas. The natural luminosity of mind suddenly reveals itself and the original light is everywhere. -Keizan Zenji
A Zazenkai is a day of Zen practice at Heart of Wisdom Zen Temple, Portland OR. Join us for a silent day of meditation (seated and walking), chanting, mindful eating, temple care-taking, and a dharma talk. We close the day with a ceremony to renewing our intention to live an ethical life.
No one turned away for lack of funds.
This retreat is held in silence.
