In-person participants to all events at Dai Bosatsu Zendo and New York Zendo — including kessei, sesshin, celebrations and ceremonies — must comply with the following Covid-19 protocols:
Vaccination
You must provide proof of full vaccination. Kindly email a photo of your CDC vaccination card to office@daibosatsu.org no later than three days before your arrival (if doing so by postal service, one week before you arrive). If you have received the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, you must have been fully vaccinated for at least 14 days before coming to DBZ; if you received the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine, you must have been vaccinated at least 40 days before you arrive. Proof of vaccination need only be supplied once. After your information is entered into our records, the documentation of your vaccination cards will be deleted.
Travel to ZSS Events
When traveling to Dai Bosatsu Zendo please abide by the travel recommendations issued by the CDC: masks are required on public transportation such as bus, airplane, train, and in transportation hubs like stations and airports.
Room Assignments and Common Spaces
Families/households/pods living together may be assigned shared quarters; everyone else will have a room with single occupancy. Common spaces (Zendo, Dharma Hall, Dining Room) will have windows open for additional air circulation during group gatherings and events.
Additional requirements
If you develop symptoms of cold or flu, fever, or any communicable disease or infection before your arrival date, or during travel, please cancel your plans and email the office immediately.
Unvaccinated Individuals
We welcome you to participate in our online teachings, meetings, and sittings.
