Zen for Beginners - Introductory evening 20 April

We'll be holding an introductory evening for those who have little or no experience of Zen practice and who'd like to find out a bit more and have a taste of what it's like to sit formal zazen (seated Zen meditation). No commitment to join the group on an ongoing basis (though of course you're welcome to).

Please arrive at around 7.00 for a 7.15 start, in the Marten Room upstairs at the Quaker Meeting House.  The evening will consist of an hour's introduction and discussion, after which we'll join the regular weekly meeting for a 30-minute period of zazen.

We'll conclude with tea and a formal talk on Zen practice by group convenor & Zen monk Alasdair Taisen Gordon-Finlayson.

For repeat offenders, the regular schedule of 7.30 zazen continues of course...!
