Welcome Back Sitters!

Welcome Back Sitters!

We will be returning to Multifaith for our Tuesday night sits this October 4, 2022. We will continue with our self-serve style of set up while being mindful of leaving more spacing between the zabutons (black mats).  We also provide use of zafus (meditation cushions). 
 
The evening will begin at 7:00 so arrive about 15 minutes early to set up and settle.  The contents of Tuesday night sit will feature zazen, (seated meditation) kinhin (walking meditation) and a dharma talk. Following the sit there will be an informal fifteen minute question & answer  and sharing time for those who wish to stay.

Until further notice we will not practice chanting but who knows what the future will bring.  
 
We look forward to sharing space and time with you as we continue to navigate this ever changing world.
