Hoen-ji Spring Sesshin

Related topics:

Spring is a time of joyous renewal at Hoen-ji — the grass growing greener with each sitting, the birds returning and starting their families, the trees budding and leafing out right before our eyes. Each one of us, going deeper and deeper into our zazen, feels the rejuvenation and transformation that occur. Indeed, inside equals outside.

Led by Shinge Roshi, this sesshin will be offered both in-person and online, and will include zazen, morning service, teisho and dokusan. 

Online Participation, suggested contribution: $100-$150. Read more »
