Kōan Café with Melissa Rōshi and David Rōshi
Kōan Café: 10:30am-12:30pm
Come explore traditional Zen kōans in a non-traditional way through seriously playful community sharing. Melissa Rōshi and David Rōshi will guide you through the exploration of individual kōans, using meditation, free association, and group dialogue. Kōan café practice helps to illuminate these ancient and often enigmatic stories and clarify what it means to be alive and free as human beings. Everyone is welcome: prior experience working with kōans is not necessary. Pre-registration is required. Follow this link to register.
Upcoming Dates: January 20*, February 17, March 23, April 13, & May 11*
*the January and May retreats will each be followed by the Jukai (precepts) ceremony at 5 pm
