NYZ: Zazenkai with Matsubara Osho

December 27, 2023 by koge louise bayer

Imagine sitting quietly in meditation. Pause, reset, and recharge yourself. You are in complete control of your emotions and the stress from your busy lifestyle. You are experiencing a state of quiet, relaxing, body-mind equilibrium. This is a time to calmly face yourself.

Zazenkai is a monthly meeting that offers a talk, Zen meditation, tea (hoji-cha) and sweets, and a Q&A. 30 seats are available. The fee is $30 per person. No experience is required.  The instructor is Rev. Dr. Masaki Matsubara, Rinzai Zen priest and Visiting Lecturer of Contemplative Studies, Brown University.  Please email  mmatsubara@outlook.com to register.  ZSS Health Protocols  apply.
