The Great Way is not difficult
for those who have no
preferences.
When love and hate are both
absent
everything becomes clear and
undisguised.
Make the smallest distinction,
however,
and heaven and earth are set infintely apart
[Faith Mind Verses,
Third Chinese Ancestor Jianzhi Sengcan]

Information
about Wednesday evening zazen and service:
Beginners
please arrive at 6:25pm for meditation instruction.
Our
practice begins with a Buddhist service. We sit two periods of zazen (seated meditation) for 35 minutes, and walk kinhin (walking meditation) for 10 minutes.
Zazen may be done in a chair or on a
cushion and mat on the floor. While there are usually extra cushions and mats
available, please bring your own if you have them. Occasionally words of
encouragement will be offered during the second period of zazen.
The
evening usually ends by 9:00pm. We collect donations to give to the
Meetinghouse in gratitude for use of their space.
Our
schedule occasionally varies around major holidays or very inclement weather.
If you have any questions regarding our schedule or our practice, please email info@lincroftzen.org or call (732)
708-0103 (ask for Nyodo).
We
look forward to practicing with you.
