SUMMARY:One-Day Meditation Retreat led by Sokaku Kathie Fischer
DESCRIPTION:Kannon Do will host a one-day sitting on Saturday\, June 13th. It is led by Sokaku Kathie Fischer\, teacher at Everyday Zen Foundation. This day of mindfulness offers a rare opportunity to turn our awareness to the simple activities that sustain our lives\, and that we normally take for granted: breathing\, walking\, eating\, being attentive to the workings of our mind. The distractions and pressures of daily responsibilities diminish\, giving a wider world view a chance to appear\, along with a sense of gratitude and calmness. We encourage you to organize your schedule so that you can attend this one day retreat. If you are interested in attending or have questions\, please contact Dan Geiger at dan@dangeiger.com. \nSokaku Kathie Fischer began practicing Zen in 1971 with Sojun Mel Weitsman at the Berkeley Zen Center. She was ordained a Zen priest at San Francisco Zen Center in 1980 by Zentatsu Richard Baker\, and continued residential practice at Zen Center for 15 more years. She received Dharma transmission from Sojun Weitsman in 2011 while in the midst of her 28-year career as a school teacher in Mill Valley. Since retiring from teaching science to adolescents she has turned her attention to studying and teaching Dharma. Kathie and her husband Norman are parents of adult twin sons and grandparents of three children. \n

SUMMARY:Baika-ryū Eisanka Event
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, June 23rd\, from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. Kannon Do will host a Baika-ryū Eisanka event led by Rev. Monen Ishikawa\, who serves as a Baika-ryu Specialty Teacher since 2015.  Baika-ryū Eisanka is a type of Japanese Buddhist hymn created by the Soto Zen School in 1952. \nThrough chanting these hymns\, practitioners study the teachings of the Buddha (Shakyamuni)\, as well as the founding teachers of the Sōtō Zen tradition\, Dōgen Zenji and Keizan Zenji. Based on a spirit of vow and commitment\, Baika-ryū is not only about chanting but also about putting these teachings into practice in daily life.  At each temple\, people gather to learn devotion and practice\, with a joyful emphasis on chanting together. By coming together\, participants wish for each other’s happiness\, support one another through suffering and difficulties\, and encourage one another in a spirit of harmony. In this way\, they aspire to live bright\, compassionate\, and meaningful lives together. \nFor those wishing to join us via Zoom: \nClicking this link will enable you to join the meeting without entering a password: \nhttps://zoom.us/j/6067111411?pwd=aWtVNWdSZ2RIRkdQUEM5eHV5Wkhkdz09 \nOr you may join by entering in the meeting id and password manually: \nMeeting ID: 606 711 1411\nPasscode: 100088\nOne tap mobile\n+16699006833\,\,6067111411#\,\,\,\,\,\,0#\,\,100088# \nDuring the event please mute yourself if you are in a noisy area.

SUMMARY:One-Day Meditation Retreat led by Ando Jaune Evans
DESCRIPTION:Kannon Do will host a one-day sitting on Saturday\, October 10th.  It is led by Ando Jaune Evans\, priest and senior teacher at Everyday Zen Foundation. This day of mindfulness offers a rare opportunity to turn our awareness to the simple activities that sustain our lives\, and that we normally take for granted: breathing\, walking\, eating\, being attentive to the workings of our mind. The distractions and pressures of daily responsibilities diminish\, giving a wider world view a chance to appear\, along with a sense of gratitude and calmness. We encourage you to organize your schedule so that you can attend this one day retreat. If you are interested in attending or have questions\, please contact Dan Geiger at dan@dangeiger.com. \nAndo Jaune Evans was originally ordained as a priest in the White Plum Lineage by Bernie Glassman and Taizan Maezumi Roshi in 1983 at the Zen Community of New York. She leads the Heart of Compassion Zen Sangha in Point Reyes\, California. Jaune works as the Executive Director of Tamalpais Trust\, a philanthropic foundation which supports and helps to protect Indigenous Peoples’ sacred lands and waters\, cultural and human rights\, gender empowerment\, and global justice alliance-building. She serves on the Board of Directors of Commonweal\, the leadership team of Healing Circles\, and is an Advisor to both the Board of the UC Berkeley Human Rights Center and Mesa Refuge Writer’s Refuge. \n
