Spring Three Day Sesshin led by Mary Jaksch Roshi and Arthur Wells Sensei, begins at 6 pm Fri 24 Sept, and finishes at 2 pm Mon 27 Sept 2010.

Venue: Staveley Presbyterian Camp, 1 1/2 hours west of Christchurch.

This is a silent retreat that will be conducted in the traditional, formal Zen way. Because it is shorter than our usual 6 or 7 day Sesshins, people who are new to Zen, or to Zen style meditation retreats, are especially welcome and encouraged to come and taste this profound practice. Newcomers will be offered the extra support of a small group meeting each day with a senior practitioner, in addition to the regular private interviews with the teachers that are open to everyone.

There is a weekend-only option finishing on the Sunday evening.
