Room Assignments: We want participants to know that CMZC Staff take responsibility for room assignments. This is to ensure that to the extent possible, those who are new have the benefit of rooming with those who are familiar with Sesshin. If you have an extenuating circumstance that requires a specific room type, please let us know.

Sesshin Fee – $721.00

Sesshin

Rohatsu Sesshin’ (‘Shakyamuni Enlightenment Day, Heart/Mind Practice’) is the traditional December, ‘Seven-day Meditation Intensive’ of sitting and walking meditation, three-bowl (oryoki) meals, daily Dharma talks, and personal interviews (dokusan) with the teacher.

Sesshin is for experienced Zazen Practitioners. If you think you are ready to do our first seven-day Sesshin, please use our registration form– and we will contact you to arrange an interview.

We hope that returning in-person practitioners will bring their own oryoki set; but we are happy to loan sets to those who do not have them. Sesshin arrival is on November 30th, between 4-5 PM. There will be a welcoming dinner at 6 PM. Sesshin departure will be about 11AM, December 8th, after a festive brunch. Please feel free to contact us for more information.

” Seven Day Sesshins open the gates of Equanimity and Imperturbability!”
