Rohatsu Sesshin
Celebrate Buddha's Enlightenment

We will sit together, both on Zoom and in the zendo, for seven days beginning Saturday, December 4. The sit extends all morning and reconvenes for two periods in the late afternoon. There will be a dharma talk each day, and those in the zendo will share a Covid-safe oryoki breakfast. On the evening of Wednesday, December 8, those in attendance will enact Buddha's Enlightenment Ceremony—outside in the patio, weather permitting.
