~ Zen: The Next Step ~
Saturday, February 8, 9:25am-12:00pm
So you know the basics of Zen meditation. Now what?
This workshop is for those with some background in Zen meditation - including those who have previously taken our Intro to Zen workshop - who are interested in learning more about the Zen way.
We will take a deeper dive into the three vital aspects of Zen practice: zazen, study, and engagement.
You will learn how to practice Zen off the cushion, the importance and process of working with a teacher,
and how the course of practice unfolds.
