Please know that your generous dana supports Zuisei’s work and the operations of the Ocean Mind Sangha, a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation. Your donation is tax deductible to the extent allowed by applicable law. Visit here to donate or select Pay What You Want when registering.
Zazen
Whether you’ve been sitting for a while and want to deepen your meditation practice, or you are new to zazen, everyone is welcome. We begin at 7 pm with an hour of zazen. You’re welcome to join partway (just make sure to register before 7pm EDT— the link disappears once we’ve begun). You can also take a break in the middle, or engage standing or walking meditation on your own.
Meditation Instruction
If you’re new to Zen meditation or the Ocean Mind Sangha, please let Zuisei know so she can give you beginning instruction in zazen and an orientation to our program.
Dharma Talks and Buddhist Study
Every Wednesday Evening Zuisei offers a dharma teaching followed by Q&A. To explore her teaching further, visit the full archive of Zuisei’s dharma talks on the OMS Podcast page, or check out the Buddhist Study Calendar for focused Buddhist study at OMS.
