Open Gate Zendo (Saturday)

9:30 am to 11:00 am

The Saturday Open Gate Zendo is a Public Meditation Service. It consists of two 25-minute meditation periods, recitation of a poem, and a Dharma Talk.

After the first meditation, we stretch, then recite the Hakuin’s Poem “In Praise of Zazen”

After the second sitting, a teacher (or Dharma students) gives a Dharma Talk

After the service, please plan to stay for coffee/tea or any special gathering.

You can sit on a mat and cushion or a chair, whichever is more comfortable.

Everyone is welcome!

Donations are appreciated.
