Dharma Talk this Week, April 17 Begins a New Lecture Series: "Zen Buddhism & The Japanese Influence"

[Jim Eubanks (Shi Yong Xiang)]

This week, Thursday, April 17 will bring a new series of talks to CPB:
"Zen Buddhism & The Japanese Influence." The first topic this
Thursday is: "Why Sit if Bodymind is Already Unified?: Zen Master
Dogen's Response."

We will be looking at the origin and development of Zen Buddhism in
Japan, paying attention to the important contributions of Zen to the
global Buddhist community and especially its influence on CPB's own
Pragmatic Buddhism.

With the changing season and warmer weather, this is a wonderful time
to establish that consistent practice you've been wanting. Come spend
some time with CPB and bring a friend or two on Thursday evening and
do something good for yourself!

Hope to see you then!

Monastic Director, CPB
