Hi there —

Tomorrow, Tuesday November 4, we will have:

• Practice: as always, Tuesday 9am Pacific (12pm Eastern; 18:00 CEST) (Zoom)

• The sitting period will be shorter, with a talk & group discussion after practice.

And:

• Dharma Talk & Community Discussion: after practice, I’ll talk about the Buddha’s Four Noble Truths, followed by a community discussion.

• Orientation before practice: for anyone new or with questions about forms, 30 minutes before practice (8:30am PST; 11:30am EST; 17:30 CET). (Zoom.)

• The complete schedule with calendar items and more information, is available at https://www.tczen.org/schedule 

RSVP for Half-Day Retreat, November 15

Retreats deepen our individual practice and build engaged and compassionate energy that we take into the world. I hope you can join us!

Our next mini-retreat is Saturday, Nov 15, 9am-12pm Pacific (12-3p Eastern; 6-9p CEST) at the same Zoom link as regular practice (Zoom link).

• We will alternate sitting & walking practice, plus koan dialogues (optional)

• I recommend to attend the full 3 hours, although you may come late or leave early as needed

• Please RSVP here by Mon Nov 10 to help plan the schedule

• No special preparation is required, although you might give extra consideration on how to sit comfortably and quietly (more here)

With thanks for your practice!
