SUMMARY:Zazen
DESCRIPTION:Silent sitting meditation. Open to all. \nThis sit occurs both online via Zoom and in-person at Mountain Cloud Zen Center. \nParticipants will be guided through two rounds of 25-minute sits\, with a 5-minute walking meditation in between. You’re welcome to attend both sits\, or just one if you’re new to silent sitting. \nTo participate online\, please click on the zoom link below: \nsit.mountaincloud.org\nPasscode: mountain22 \nTo attend in person\, please read and follow our COVID-19 Protocols for MCZC’s current policies on masks\, vaccinations\, and testing. \n∞ \nZazen\, derived from the Japanese term meaning ‘sitting meditation’\, is a cornerstone practice in Zen Buddhism. At its essence\, Zazen is the act of simply sitting\, yet it encompasses much more than mere physical stillness. Practitioners engage in Zazen with a deliberate posture and mental focus unique to Zen meditation\, emphasizing mindfulness and awareness of breath. Through dedicated practice\, Zazen cultivates clarity\, presence\, and insight\, serving as a pathway to deepening one’s understanding of the self and the nature of reality. \n∞ \nYou may sit with us in our zendo as follows*:\nMonday – Tuesday\n7:00-8:00am • Zazen\n8:00-8:30am • Tea and Toast with Zen teacher Scott Thornton and Residents (in-person only)\n5:30-6:30pm • Zazen \nWednesday\n7:00-8:00am • Zazen\n8:00-8:30am • Tea and Toast with Zen teacher Scott Thornton and Residents (in-person only)\n5:30-6:30pm • Wisdom Wednesday\nmeditation + guidance + brief talk/Q&A \nThursday\n7:00-8:00am • Zazen\n5:30–7:00pm • Zazen\nmeditation & dharma talk at 6:00pm \nFriday\n7:00–8:00am • Zazen \nSaturday\n8:30–9:30am • Zazen \nSunday\n8:30–9:30am • Zazen\n9:30- 10am • Community Tea (in-person only)\n10- 11:15am • Introduction to Zen Meditation (in-person only) \n*There is no Zazen during retreats.
