In this brief time together you will learn how to sit in meditation, or it will be a refresher for you; you will be introduced to the teachings of ancient Zen masters through participating in the chanting of the sutras; you will experience the form we use to bring us to a place of focus on one’s mind and the calmness that eventually arises through meditation, including eating in silence, walking mindfully, and listening to the recitation of the sutras (teachings) of the Buddha.

After the sitting and service, and a light breakfast, Seien Roshi will give a Dharma Talk.
