Please join us for our Meditation in Life series, in which we come together by sharing our experiences, by listening to each other, by asking the important questions and by establishing closer relationships. Open to both current members and visitors. Dan will be leading our discussion. The discussion topic will be: What is your experience during meditation?

Kannon Do will be celebrating 50 years of Rev. Les Kaye's practice. There will be no meditation instruction this night and those planning to attend the celebration should plan on arriving early. This is a special event for the sangha and for affiliated communities. A reception will be held following the normal schedule.

Join us at 10:30 AM for an introduction to Zen meditation.  It's meant for people new to Zen meditation as well as practitioners with questions about their contemplative practice.  This informal get together is a recurring activity, the first Saturday of the month, and it lasts typically about 90 minutes.
