Kannon Do is in process of planning a dynamic and engaging short video that will become part of the website. The filming will take place on Saturday, February 27th, and will include brief scenes of the people and activities of Kannon Do, as well short interviews.
Join us at 10:30 AM for an Introduction to Zen. This orientation is intended primarily for individuals new to Zen practice, as well as experienced practitioners who have questions about their contemplative practice. This informal get together takes place on the first Saturday of the month, lasting about 90 minutes.
Please join for a garden work day on Saturday March 5, from 10:30 to about noon. The winter rains have been wonderful for our plantings, and also for the weeds, so join us if you can to help groom our beautiful property. Garden gloves and tools will be provided, but wear sturdy shoes and bring a hat.
Our March 12th topic will be “Our Work”. We will meet to discuss work issues that have moved, challenged, or may have overcome us in the challenging work environment of Silicon Valley.
Please join us Sunday, March 20, for our Kannon Do Annual Meeting.
The winter rains have encouraged our plantings, but also an abundant crop of weeds, so join us if you can to help groom our beautiful property. Garden gloves and tools will be provided, but wear sturdy shoes and bring a hat and your own gloves if you have them.
On Saturday, April 2nd, Kannon Do will host a one-day meditation retreat, or Sesshin. This day of mindfulness offers a rare opportunity to turn our awareness to the simple activities that sustain our lives, that we normally take for granted: breathing, walking, eating, being attentive to the workings of our mind.
