Wednesdays, 7 pm - 9m EDT

Welcome to the Ocean Mind Sangha. Please join us for our weekly online silent meditation session (zazen). After sitting, Zuisei offers a dharma talk or leads the study of a text.

The schedule is as follows:
7:00 pm Log in
7:05 pm Beginning of zazen
8:00 pm End of zazen
8:05 pm Dharma talk or study
9:00 pm Closing chant

If you’ve been sitting for a while and want to deepen your meditation, our open Wednesday sits are perfect for you. We sit for an hour, but if you’re unable to sit that long yet want to come for the dharma study, you’re welcome to join partway (just make sure to register before the event starts; the link disappears once we’ve begun). You can also take a break in the middle of zazen, or do some standing or walking meditation.

At the end of the evening we’ll chant the Four Immeasurables or the Four Bodhisattva Vows before closing.

If you’re new to Zen meditation or the Ocean Mind Sangha, please let Zuisei know so she can plan to give you beginning instruction in zazen and an orientation to our program.

We look forward to sitting with you.
