Description

One-Day Sittings are open to those who have completed at least one introductory half-day sitting at Green Gulch, or have comparable background in formal Zen practice.

Devoting this day to sitting together offers a chance to step outside the busyness and noise of everyday life, resettle, and clarify what's most important.

One-Day Sittings include formal meals in the zendo for breakfast and lunch, and an informal dinner in the dining room. Please bring your oryoki bowls. If you do not have oryoki bowls, we will provide you appropriate eating bowls and utensils.

Please review the sample schedule before registering.

If you have any questions regarding the schedule, guidelines, or your eligibility for the One-Day Sitting, please consult with the Head of the Meditation Hall (Ino) at ggfino@sfzc.org before completing your registration.
