Zen Center

Meditation Schedule

Saturday mornings at 9:30 am

Wednesday evenings at 7 pm

Beginning Meditation Instruction is offered to newcomers on the last Wednesdays and Saturdays of the month. Otherwise, feel free to visit any of our scheduled sitting, but, If possible, come about a halfhour early. For the basics of Zen and sitting see Zen 1-2-3.

On Wednesday evenings we begin with zazen, or meditation, followed with daisan, or formal one-to-one interview between one of the teachers and a student. Daisan is followed with a discussion, a microdharma talk, or both.


On Saturdays we begin with Service and then zazen, daisan, and probably a dharma talk given by one or the other of the teachers. Sometimes, a senior student will give the dharma talk. After the talk there is sometimes time to socialize and perhaps have tea and cookies together.
