If so you may wish to join us at Drifting Mountain Zen.Drifting Mountain Zen, is an Utah non profit entity, founded by Mary Ellen Seien Sloan Roshi, to offer Zen teaching and meditation in Salt Lake City, including in the historic avenues.She is a Dharma heir of Dennis Genpo Merzel Roshi, the founder of Kanzeon Inc. and successor of Taizan Maezumi Roshi, founder of the Zen Center of Los Angeles. 
Why Drifting Mountain?
Seien Roshi was inspired to name her organization Drifting Mountain upon seeing the water color painting by her brother, Timothy Sloan. The mountains appear unmoving, — and yet the moment you look more closely, something within them begins to move. Their outlines soften into cloud. Their ridges dissolve into mist. Their peaks emerge, disappear, and re-emerge.It is stillness that is alive — vibrant, breathing, responsive, awake.The clouds swirl, the sky glows, the light shifts on the snow, and yet the whole scene rests in a quiet peace.
