On the first Monday of each month, Confluence Zen Center has a Beginner’s night and Beginner’s zazen. Arrive before 6:30 PM and Daigaku will go over how we sit, and a light discussion of Zen Buddhism.
After, starting at 7:00, we sit in an abbreviated fashion, with a 15 minute sit, followed by 5 minutes of kinhin (walking meditation) and then a 20 minute sit.
If you’re interesting in sitting in Zen meditation, we welcome you to come and see what it’s all about.
On November 19th, Confluence Zen Center had a book signing and talk around Daigaku’s latest translation effort, The Formless Record of the Transmission of Illumination, a commentary by Inoue Gien Roshi on Keizan Zenji’s Denkoroku.
The event was well attended and Dagaku gave a speech on the work, its relevance, why he chose this work for his next translation, and of course took questions.
Soon, we will post the entire lecture given by Daigaku at the event.
