Sesshin March 14 to 17, 2024

From Thursday March 14th to Sunday March 17th we will be conducting a three day retreat in our Zendo in The Hague. Originally we were to do a two day workshop within this sesshin with Frank De Waele Roshi (Michel Sensei's dharma brother from Ghent) on art and zen but this workshop has unfortunately been cancelled. So the sesshin will be a regular three day retreat which will start Thursday evening at 18.00 hrs with a light meal followed by a start meeting and meditation from 20.00 hrs to 21.20 hrs. Friday and Saturday we will follow the usual sesshin schedule from 7.00 to 21.20 hrs. On Sunday we start at 7.00 hrs and end at around 17.00 hrs. The schedule includes sitting and walking meditation, personal interviews with Sensei (daisan) and dharma-talks on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. You can also participate part time and through the Zoom platform.
