“Silence is the think tank of the soul.”

—Gordon Hempton

Silence is at the heart of meditation practice because in order to see ourselves and the world clearly, we need quiet to let the mind and body settle. In Buddhism, silence is considered a great refuge.

Join us for our monthly Zazen Intensive: Half-Day Sit, devoted to zazen or silent meditation led by Guiding Teacher Zuisei Goddard. The schedule below is open—come for either sit or any part of the day.

These sits are open, which means there are no timed periods. You’re welcome to stand, take breaks, or adjust your posture as needed.
