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.
