Great Stour Zen Meditation Group
We offer zen meditation (zazen) and dharma study every Tuesday online, and every third Tuesday in person/hybrid.
Here's our Zoom link (https://us06web.zoom.us/j/84379876080?pwd=XwV3mtYS9kO5bayeEOfvMpuR401t5N.1).
Our practice at GSZ is rooted in the Japanese Zen tradition. Upright sitting meditation (zazen) in community is the core of our practice, informed by the study and chanting of Buddhist texts and teachings, in harmony within ourselves and with the universe.
“In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities; in the expert’s mind there are few.”
– Shunryu Suzuki
So please don’t worry if you’re new to meditation. Your beginner’s mind is welcome here.
