Zen at UoN

The chair of the UoN Meditation Society, Chetak Nangare (and it must be said in the interests of full disclosure, one of my PhD students!) has put a flyer and Facebook event up for this week's session at the uni:

Upcoming visits

Just to keep everyone posted (and show that I'm keeping busy!), thought I'd drop a note here to say that I'll be doing two visits in the next couple of weeks.

First I'll be attending Eastfield Academy to run a full-school assembly there. I'll be trying to remember not to embarrass my son too much, who's in Year 4 at Eastfield! I've done a few primary school visits before, and always enjoy the kids' curiosity and occasionally odd questions.

The following week I'll also be visiting the University of Northampton's Meditation Society to give them a bit of a taste of formal zazen practice - curious to find what they make of it.

Should anyone else happen to need a visit from a Zen monk, drop me a line!
