We meet on Wednesday Evenings at 7.30pm

The session starts with 30 minutes of siting. We then have a short ceremony followed by a talk and open discussion. Everyone is welcome.

If you have not practiced Zazen before, please come at 7.15pm for a short introduction to the practice.

We also meet on Friday mornings but please contact John for further details of this

Please wear loose, comfortable clothing. We ask people to contribute £3 (£2 for unwaged/students) per visit towards the cost of running the group.

Zazen is the simplest form of action, when we are practicing Zazen we do not intentionally think about anything or concentrate on our feelings and perceptions. We sit in a simple non-discriminating state where our body-and-mind is balanced and undivided.

You will also find a detailed explanation of how to practice Zazen and kinhin in the online electronic booklet (Adobe Acrobat pdf format) “Introduction to Buddhism and the Practice of Zazen” that you can download by clicking on this link.
