Zen Buddhist Sangha of Washington, D.C.
To study the Buddha way is to study the self. To study the self is to forget the self. To forget the self is to be actualized by myriad things. When actualized by myriad things, your body and mind as well as the bodies and minds of others drop away. No trace of realization remains, and this no-trace continues endlessly. –Dogen
Ka Shin Zendo is a group of dedicated lay Zen practitioners founded in 1969. Our focus is zazen, the seated meditation at the core of Buddhist practice that aims to cultivate awareness and cut through delusion, awakening practitioners to the reality of the here and now.
We offer zazen twice weekly, weekend retreats and other events. For newcomers, a brief orientation (by appointment) takes place on the first Saturday and Monday of each month. We practice at Takoma Park Presbyterian Church at the corner of Maple and Tulip Streets, Takoma Park, MD. Please check our schedule, as we are open only during scheduled sitting and retreat times. For additional information, or to be added to our email list (a few messages/month) please email us. You can also follow us on Facebook.
One-day retreat, Saturday, November 9, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
