ZEN MEDITATION RETREAT
April 5th
Begins Sunday 8:00am Alaska Time (9:00am PT)
Retreat is a time to look inside and investigate our life. It is an opportunity to clear our mind of habitual thinking and access our wisdom and compassion.
Please join us for a Half-Day Retreat on Sunday, April 5th, from 8:00am to 12:30pm Alaska Time, either in person at Cold Mountain Zen Center or on Zoom. No experience is necessary. A half-day retreat is an excellent introduction to deeper practice without committing to a full weekend retreat. Check your time zone here. The retreat will include 108 prostrations, chanting meditation, sitting & walking meditation, and a circle talk. Koan interviews will be given by Jason Quinn JDPSN.
