Summer Zazenkai: A One Day Meditation Retreat
With Larry Fuho Trussell
July 22, 2023
Zazen is going right into the Ocean of Awareness, manifesting the body of all Buddhas. The natural luminosity of mind suddenly reveals itself and the original light is everywhere. -Keizan Zenji
A Zazenkai is a day of Zen practice at Heart of Wisdom Zen Temple, Portland OR. Join us for a silent day of meditation (seated and walking), chanting, mindful eating, temple care-taking, and a dharma talk. We close the day with a ceremony to renewing our intention to live an ethical life.
No one turned away for lack of funds.
This retreat is held in silence.
