WEEKLY INTRODUCTION TO ZEN MEDITATION CLASS
Our weekly 7:30 pm to 8:30 pm Introduction to Zen Meditation class were formerly held at the I AM HEALING ARTS CENTER- 1918 Robinhood St. Sarasota . FL 34231 telephone 941.927.6797. has been cancelled due to lack of membership financial support and participation.
Please visit the Events Calender for ongoing and special events.
The Zen center is a wonderful opportunity to come together for group practice, and the importance of this group practice cannot be overstated. Everyone, beginners and seasoned practitioners alike, benefits greatly from attending. Our time of "just-sitting", walking, eating, and working together in silence sharpens our attention and helps refreshes us, giving us strength and courage needed to continue strong and determined, moment-to-moment daily life.
No weekly sitting schedule during the summer months of June, July, and August. Reverend Thompson will answer any email inquiries during the summer as he is traveling. Rev. Thompson will resume traditional services in the autumn. You may wish to contact Reverend Elliston, abbot of the Atlanta Soto Zen center to participate in their summer schedule. (Please click on the Affiliated Zen Centers link at left for more details.)
We invite and encourage everyone to come to the Zen center and take advantage of the opportunity to practice Zen meditation. Zen does not conflict in any way with any religious creed, so please do not hesitate to join.
Gassho,
Reverend Daito Zenei Thompson
