NYZ: Evening Zazen

New York Zendo is open for evening zazen Monday and Wednesday from 7 pm to 9 pm.  Doors open at 6:30 pm.

Newcomers to the temple should attend one Introduction to Zen Meditation class, held on Thursday evenings, before joining the community for other practice events. The introduction covers the basics of Zen meditation: posture, breathing, and concentration. Beginners will also learn the forms used at New York Zendo for bowing, chanting, and walking meditation (kinhin). No prior experience is necessary.

A quiet atmosphere with minimal distractions is essential to our practice. Please refer to Zendo Etiquette before attending a sit.  A $10 donation is requested. ZSS Health Protocols apply.
