Zen Meditation on the Los Angeles Westside

Thank you for your interest in our group! Because of the Covid pandemic, we have suspended our meetings indefinitely.

Touching transcendence. Maintaining mindfulness. Living awake, moment after moment.

Zen is an ancient tradition, yet it's a living one that is constantly evolving. Today we're in the midst of the digital revolution. We no longer have to journey to the Far East to uncover the great spiritual secrets - we can find them online. No more need to scour bookstores for hints - just Google your question and you'll find more than enough answers.

 

So, then, what more is there to do? What does Zen have to offer us now?

The heart of Zen is in the doing of it. For commuters in modern Los Angeles as much as monks and nuns in medieval Japan, the task has always been to learn the forms of practice then set about applying them. The forms evolve, but the goal is always the same - wake up right now and be fully involved in your life in this moment.
