“Hiding a heron in the moonlight” is a line from the Song of the Jewel Mirror Samadhi, a Zen poem written in 9th century China. The phrase (and the whole poem) describes the activity of a person practicing the Buddha Way, merging the particular and the universal. This is the everyday and consequential affair of Zen practice.

Our day will include sitting and walking meditation, a Dharma talk and discussion period, and silent bag lunch. Please bring your own lunch. 

This event is in-person.  Register on Eventbrite.
