Virtual Temple – Spring Sesshin 2021
with Michael Mugaku Zimmerman Roshi
April 12 – 17, 2021
Via the Zoom Conference Platform

Join Michael Mugaku Zimmerman Roshi for an online retreat that will suit anyone who is looking for a strong meditation experience with flexibility in the schedule.

We invite everyone to set aside the time to dive in deeply Monday – Saturday, attending all the sits and Dharma Talks. But if your situation requires, you can adjust your participation as long as you sit at least one full block a day (not including the Dharma talk.) You can join the retreat starting on Monday, or join the group on Wednesday.

7:00 – 9:00 am MDT: Zazen (Orientation on Monday morning at 7:00am)
11:00 am – 1:00 pm MDT: Zazen & Dharma Talk

Participants are asked to commit to the following ground rules:

• You may set your own zazen schedule, but you must commit to at least one full sitting session each day on Zoom (Not including the 11-1 pm sit and Dharma Talk.)
• When you have set your schedule, we will ask you to showing up on the Zoom platform each day according to the schedule you have planned in advance. We will provide a method for you to submit your schedule in advance so that we know who to expect in the Virtual Zendo.
• Sitting sessions consist of two or three 30-35 minute periods. As in the physical Zendo, you may enter a sit at the beginning of a session, or during a break between periods.
• All participants must register for the program.

Your enrollment fee is a vital contribution to TAZ, now as always. As usual, you will be given the opportunity to donate to the scholarship fund to support our young practitioners and the diversity of our community.

$395 USD Individual Registration (Mon-Sat)
$295 USD Individual Registration (Wed-Sat)
