Diane Musho Hamilton Roshi is in residence in Torrey in July and August. We set aside August as time for Sangha practice together with a daily schedule of zazen, work practice, and study. In traditional Zen training a practice period like this is called an Ango, which means “peaceful dwelling.” It is also a training period for senior monks, culminating in the Shuso Hossen ceremony in mid-August. The Summer Practice period in Torrey is from Sunday, July 28 – Saturday, August 24.

Summer Practice Days: July 28 – August 6; August 19 – 24.

The Third Treasure: The Practice of Community
with Diane Musho Hamilton Roshi
August 7 – 17, 2018
Two Arrows Zen Torrey Zendo
57 South 300 West, Torrey, Utah

Members of the Dragon Heart Sangha are invited to join Diane Musho Hamilton Roshi for The Third Treasure: The Practice of Community, an exploration into the intimacy of sangha and what it means to “be for each other.”

We will meditate in the mornings and evenings, and in the afternoons, practice skills to strengthen our relationships and grow our capacity for clear, dynamic, and enlivening interactions in the context of a practice community.

Outings into the natural beauty of Capitol Reef National Park and other locations will be an essential part of your experience.

This is an essential Sangha Retreat for all formal students and for anyone who desires to practice in-depth with Diane Musho Hamilton Roshi. This retreat is part of the Summer Ango practice intensive and features elements of Zen practice and ritual training for senior monks, culminating in the Shuso Hossenshiki (Dharma Combat) ceremony on August 17. Two other ceremonies are scheduled during the retreat: Shukke Tokkudo (monk’s ordination) on Sunday, August 11; and the Jukai ceremony on Friday, August 16, when new practitioners receive the Precepts.

Over the course of the retreat, Musho Sensei will engage the four pillars of Integral practice: cognition, meditation, shadow, and body. You will:

• Engage the forms of Zen practice, including daily Zazen, Zen services, and ceremonies.
• Discover Integrally-informed relationship practices.
• Connect with a community of Integral practitioners committed to open, authentic communication.
• Enjoy outings in the beautiful red-rock country of Southern Utah
• Participate in one-on-one interviews with Musho Roshi.
• Enjoy delicious, healthy meals (with vegetarian options) prepared by our excellent kitchen.

Summer is beautiful in Torrey. We will enjoy the longest days of the year, bright skies, and star-spangled nights. However, the day/night temperature swings in the high desert can be extreme. Always expect the possibility of rain and/or wind. Bring a water bottle, brimmed hat, good closed-toe hiking shoes, sunglasses and sunscreen, and clothing you can layer. You will get a complete gear list with your orientation letter.
Daytime outings may require driving up to a half-hour to the destination. Hikes are generally short and on moderate terrain. A hiking stick to navigate uneven ground may be helpful.
