SUMMARY:Rohatsu Sesshin – Opening Evening Program (Online Only)
DESCRIPTION:During Rohatsu sesshin we celebrate Shakyamuni Buddha’s enlightment by dedicating ourselves to zazen practice. As the darkest days of the year approach\, we sit together with the principle of awakening\, fully opening to the ‘wisdom beyond wisdom’ that becomes bright in sitting meditation. \nThis year’s Rohatsu will be co-led by So’on Jim Hare and Paravritti Doralee Grindler Katonah. The teaching will be based on the Sattipatthana Sutra\, the sutra on the four establishments or foundations of mindfullness. \nThis retreat is offered partly online and partly in-person. The in-person days include formal Oryoki meals for lunch and dinner. There will be Dharma talks on days 2\, 6\, 7\, and 8. For more information or to request a reduced fee or scholarship\, please contact us at info@valleystreamszen.org. \nNote that this retreat is intended for experienced practitioners. Participants should have a regular sitting practice and have attended several one-day retreats at Valley Streams or elsewhere. There will be instruction in Oryoki meal practice for those not familiar with it. \nRegister for week-long program on Eventbrite\n\nSunday Schedule:\n7:30 pm Welcome and Orientation\n8:00 pm Zazen\n8:30 pm Refuges  (PDF)
