News from the local Bread Loaf Mountain Zen Community

Dear Sangha,
The winter weather has quieted the atmosphere here at Bread Loaf Mountain Zen Community, but like the spring shoots preparing for their return, we’re using this time wisely to develop new programs we’ll be offering in 2024.  Our hope is that these upcoming practice and learning opportunities (in person and online) will enrich and enliven practice for you.

Currently in development are, a weekend on the Teachings of Bodhidharma, a May Zen Circle on Dylan and Dogen, a sesshin on the Song of Zazen, a workshop on Jizo Bodhisattva (includes making of your very own Jizo from clay), a workshop exploring The Grass Hut (Shitou’s classic Zen poem), and more!
