early morning ZAZen

with Rev. Janine Seitetsu Larsen & Dinah Seishin Hartley

Drop-in friendly; join and leave as your schedule allows. Microphones muted throughout, please. Turn off camera if you need to move about during the period.

We may use a meditation timer to allow practice leaders to fully engage meditation rather than watching the clock. In this case, timekeeper will keep mic open, and background sounds will be audible.

Verse of the Kesa 
Great robe of liberation,
Field far beyond form and emptiness,
Wearing the Tathagata’s teaching,
Saving all beings (3X)

Four Great Bodhisattva Vows
Beings are numberless, I vow to free them;
Delusions are inexhaustible, I vow to end them;
Dharma gates are boundless, I vow to enter them;
The Buddha Way is unsurpassable, I vow to embody it. (3X)
