Live Zen is a Zen (Chan)
Practice and Meditation Center organized by the China
Culture Center.
We holds each week an evening of insight into the teachings
and practices of Zen Buddhism. The participants are
guided on a journey of self-discovery each week by a
Buddhist layman with occasional visits by real Zen Buddhist
monks. You will also learn about Zen (Chan in Chinese)
through its music, its stories, its art, its rituals
and its martial arts.
* Each week we'll discuss how the principles of Zen
(Chan) can be applied to calm and enrich our own daily
lives.
* In keeping with
the meaning of Zen (Chan)¨Cˇ°learning through meditationˇ±-
weˇŻll end each weekly meeting with a 40-45-minute
meditation session. Our Buddhist guide will teach
you the proper meditation techniques and our Zen environment
of music, candles and incense will calm your mind
and soothe your soul.
