Full Moon Zazen

“Buddha nature pervades the whole universe, existing right here now…”

In this time of forced isolation and social distancing, we thought it would be good to gather under the light of the full moon, wherever we happen to be.

This means sitting for one hour at home when the moon is at its fullest, knowing that others in the sangha are doing the same. Our shared time will be 8—9pm.

A full list of Full Moon Zazen dates can be found below.
