Anyone may participate with us. The schedule consists of zazen, serivces, meals, a morning dharma talk, and a short afternoon work period. Meals are taken in oryoki style in the zendo. The daily schedule begins at 5 a.m. and ends at 9 p.m. We offer four sesshins each year.
Meals are informal.
Each participant is encouraged to bring some vegetables or a dish to share. At mealtimes, we prepare what is available and eat in the Western manner. After breakfast and lunch, there is a break during which people may talk quietly, take walks, read, or do zazen. People who wish to stay overnight may sleep in the zendo. There is no fee, though contributions are welcome.
