Welcome

Cloud Zendo Sangha is dedicated to the study of Buddha’s teaching and the practice of Zen meditation. We invite newcomers and experienced Zen students to join us for meditation, chanting, koan study, dharma talks, and community activities.

What We Offer

Twice-monthly zazen (seated meditation) sessions, in person only, on the first and third Saturdays of the month. We begin at 9 AM

One-day retreats — usually on the third Saturday of the month.

Dharma talks by experienced teachers.

Instruction for anyone new to Zen practice. Drop by 30 minutes early (8:30 AM) on the first Saturday of the month for meditation instruction.

Community support and discussion forums.

Zazen Practice

Our practice form includes:

Two 25-minute periods of seated meditation. The first period includes the chanting of traditional Zen texts. Cushions and chairs are provided.

10 minutes of walking meditation (kinhin) between seated periods.

A Dharma talk typically follows zazen, with time set aside for questions and discussion.
