NYZ: Summer Sutra Collective
August 1 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Fridays | July 18th – September 5th, 2025 | 7:00 – 8:30 pm
Feeling anxious for no reason, or worn out by the usual happy hour scene? Try something different.
Sutra copying is a traditional Buddhist practice that generates merit for yourself and for all beings. You don’t need to be a Buddhist or a skilled calligrapher to take part.
Moving slowly, stroke by stroke through the Buddha’s words, this practice quiets the mind and anchors you in the present moment.
Join us at New York Zendo Shobo-ji, in the peaceful presence of the Great Buddha statue, and connect with like-hearted practitioners. If you would like to share your favorite dessert or beverages with other practitioners, feel free to bring them.
The schedule for this Sutra Collective series will be as follows:
- Friday, July 18th and 25th
- Friday, August 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th
- Friday, September 5th
There is no fee for this class, all are welcome! ZSS Health Protocols apply.
