Desert Rain Zen Group
Retreat

Football Shift:

Because of parking problems, we move our sits to morning hours, 10:30-12:00, when there are UA home football games. We plan to hold morning sits on the following dates; but please check back to be sure--we may need to cancel one of our sits depending on game time on Homecoming Weekend:

September: 11, 18, 25

October: 9, 23

November: 13

 

 

Our Saturday sits take place from 4:30-6:00 pm.
If you haven't sat with us before, please try to arrive early, around 4:15 or a bit before.

Our sits are free and open to the public.
We welcome old and new meditators.
Our practice aims to bring traditional forms inherited from China and Japan
into touch with our contemporary world and our actual lives.

 

 

 

 

 

We're affiliated with The Open Source zen project centered in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Our holding teacher is Joan Sutherland,
founder of Open Source and of its Awakened Life zen group in Santa Fe.

 

 

Please check back here
for information about
any one-time changes
to our schedule
(occasionally, we have to move our sits to morning hours to avoid conflicts
with UA athletic events
and related parking problems).

 


 

 

Open Source is part of the Pacific Zen school.
