Kia ora!The Rotorua Zen group meets on Sunday and Monday mornings.
The venue is in Glenholme, a 15-minute walk from the centre of town. We practise seated Zen meditation ("zazen"), where participants either sit cross-legged or kneeling, or in a chair. Those new to Zen and meditation are encouraged to request instruction, which is available by appointment and takes about 45 minutes. Zazen is a practice of silence, except for a brief piece of chanting at the end of our sitting time. We share a cup of tea and some conversation to conclude the session. To support the Zen group's work, participants are encouraged to make a regular fortnightly donation of $5 to $10. |
