| The Kwan Um School of Zen is an international organization
of more than a hundred centers and groups founded by Zen Master Seung Sahn,
the first Korean Zen Master to live and teach in the West. The School's
purpose is to make this practice of Zen Buddhism available to an ever-growing
number of students throughout the world.
The heart of the Kwan Um School of Zen is the daily practice which goes
on in its Zen centers and groups. Students and visitors eat together,
work together, and meditate together -- gradually attaining a clear compassionate
mind which moment to moment is able to help all beings. Visitors are always
welcome to come to all Zen center practices and events. Instruction will
be given on chanting and sitting as the need arises.
Our programs are open to anyone regardless of previous experience. |
