MARCH 4 - 7, 2021Registration has closed.
Join us virtually for three days of practice in the style of our sesshin, a retreat devoted simply to sitting zazen. Sanshin leaders will be in the zendo maintaining the schedule and carrying out the activities of a standard sesshin day at Sanshin. You are welcome to connect via Zoom and follow along at home for as much of the day as you like. The sangha will arrive for the final zazen period and the retreat will officially end just prior to the regular Sunday dharma talk; you are welcome to attend that talk if you choose.
Regular, intensive zazen is at the core of what Sanshin is and does, but since our facilities are closed to the public we can't offer our usual calendar of monthly sesshin and retreats. Virtual practice is not a complete substitute for the solid container we create when we're living, working and practicing together in the zendo over a period of time, but it's what we have for now. A few people continuing to practice in the zendo itself maintains Sanshin's life and keeps our style alive. We're asking virtual participants to sign up below simply so that we can safely get you the information you'll need to connect via Zoom. There is no fee associated with this retreat, but if you would like to make a donation as part of your participation, you may do so at any time using the button at right. |
