Residential Training Those in training commit to at least one month of residency and follow the daily schedule which includes 3-4 hours of zazen and 5-6 hours of work-practice. Residents attend or help staff our events and weekend workshops and attend all six-day, silent meditation retreats. Close contact with the teachers allows residents to learn new ways of relating to others, to ask about specific teachings, and to receive guidance on their spiritual path. The teachers use a unique blend of Soto and Rinzai Zen in their training. Private interviews with the teachers (sanzen) are usually offered once a week, and more often during sesshin. |
