SUMMARY:Buddha Body\, Buddha Mind: Six-Day Sesshin\, CC 3/22–3/27
DESCRIPTION:Sitting in Stillness \nSesshin\, meaning “to gather\, collect\, and convey the mind-heart\,” is a traditional Soto Zen meditation retreat that includes formal zendo meals\, Dharma talks\, sitting and walking meditation\, and private interviews with senior teachers. \nOpen to everyone\, this six-day Sitting in Stillness sesshin is the final formal retreat of the City Center Winter Practice Period and is designed to support full participation for those who find full days of meditation physically or emotionally demanding. Participants will have the option to substitute some periods of zazen with walking meditation outside the meditation hall or light work in the kitchen. \nIn order to understand the nature of our formal retreats and be clear about the details of the practice\, please review the schedule. We ask those who attend the sesshin to commit to participating in the complete schedule. (Please note that there is no longer a five-day option available for this sesshin.) \nWe will be using the traditional Zen form of oryoki for eating breakfast and lunch in the zendo. While meals are included as part of the sesshin\, you will need an oryoki set to participate. You may either borrow informal bowls\, bring your own set\, purchase one ($100)\, or rent a set for the day. An oryoki instruction session will be held Saturday March 21 at 5 pm in the City Center dining room. If needed\, the formal oryoki meal can be substituted with silent meals in the dining room. \nYou can register for the Three-Day online version of this sesshin here.
