Dear Sangha,
Due to the Covid19 situation our normal schedule has been suspended. In its place we are holding a series of "virtual" or "distance" group sittings and retreats which can be accessed by phone or computer.
Our weekly "virtual" group sittings are on Saturday mornings from 8:30- 9:50 am (Currently suspended) and on Thursday evenings from 7:30 - 8:50 pm EDT (also currently suspended). Tuesday evenings are now being held from 6:30- 8:00 pm and include both zazen and a short Dharma discussion afterwards.
To log in to any of our meetings please request a link or dial in number by contacting us via our Contact page on this site. Generally speaking, a computer connection will provide the best sound quality but a cell phone connection has been satisfactory for many participants.
Any practitioner can participate in all or part(s) of these sittings but please try to be quiet during zazen. Please turn your phone or computer onto "mute", and don't introduce yourself if practice has already started. The schedule for sittings and retreats consists of 33-minute periods of sitting zazen alternating with approximately
7-minute periods of kinhin. Tuesday and Thursday evenings end with a short Sutra service or Dharma discussion. If you need a copy of our current set of "virtual" Sutras please email dharman_shakya@yahoo.com.
Our "virtual" June Retreat will be held on June 16- 18. If you would like to participate in all or parts of it please let us know via our contact page. The schedule for our current retreat is in the footer below.
Looking forward to Dharma practice with you,
Dharman for CSangha
