SUMMARY:Zazenkai: Beginning with a Pang
DESCRIPTION:Beginning with a Pang  \nSaturday\, January 18th\, 2025\nThis course is offered in-person & virtually\nRegister Here \nOur first Zazenkai of the new year falls just before the concurrence of Martin Luther King Day and the presidential inauguration – prime time to set aside a day for shared practice. \nWhat happens when\, resting in the breath\, we allow the discursive mind to settle and allow the silence of things just as they are to pervade? What might emerge as the solvent of silence divests us of anything extra? What spaciousness is this that opens our hearts and disposes us to taste and see the wisdom and compassion of who we truly are? \nCan it be a spaciousness – a boundless reality – that excludes nothing? \nIn her talk\, Valerie will invite us to keep company with Pang Lingzhao\, daughter of Layman Pang\, who tradition remembers as often surpassing her father in their teaching exchanges. The Pang family chose to sink their significant wealth in a river (or according to some accounts\, to give it away) – but the riches of the dharma sustained them to the full. Born in the final year of the devastating An Lushan rebellion\, Lingzhao’s clarity and humor shine. Her life calls to mind the refrain\, “Let freedom ring.” \nIf you plan to attend in person\, please bring your own lunch; breakfast basics and tea will be provided. To attend in person\, please read and follow our COVID-19 Protocols for MCZC’s current policies on masks\, vaccinations\, and testing. \n∞ \nZazenkai is a term used in Zen Buddhism to refer to a day of intensive meditation practice. The word “Zazenkai” is of Japanese origin\, where “za” means sitting\, and “zenkai” means gathering. During a Zazenkai\, participants engage in periods of sitting meditation (zazen)\, walking meditation (kinhin)\, and may also include chanting\, dharma talks\, and other activities related to Zen practice. Zazenkais provide an opportunity for practitioners to deepen their meditation experience and strengthen their commitment to the path of Zen Buddhism. These events can vary in length\, with some lasting a full day\, as mentioned in your previous messages. \n∞ \nSchedule (Mountain Time)\n6:00-8:00am: Sitting\n8:45: Movement\n9:00am-12:00pm: Sitting and a Dharma talk\n12:00pm-1:00pm: Lunch\n1:00-3:30pm: Sitting and Q&A \n* Note for online participants — the retreat Zoom room will open shortly before 6:00 AM MT. For those who prefer not to or cannot join the 6:00 AM MT start time\, you have the option to begin your day with movement at 8:45 AM MT or sitting and a short introduction at 9:00 AM. The dharma talk is scheduled for around 10:00 AM MT. The dharma talk will be recorded and made available on our YouTube Channel within two weeks. \n∞ \nParticipation Fee \nThe cost for the day is $50 or an amount you can reasonably afford. Your support ensures that we can continue to offer free events and low-cost retreats. \nRegister Here \n∞ \nZazenkai/Daylong dates in 2025 \n\nJanuary 18\nFebruary 15\nMay 3\nJune 28\nJuly 19\nNovember 15\n\n
