Today

Celebration at Kannon Do

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.

Introduction to Zen

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.

Sesshin

Film Showing

We are delighted to announce that on January 9th at 10:30 am, 10 year-old Chichiro will find her way to Kannon Do. Roger Ebert's review captures something of the film maker, Hayeo Miyazaki: I was so fortunate to meet Miyazaki at the 2002 Toronto film festival.

Sesshin

On Saturday, February 13th, 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.
