Life has a way of intervening in our best-laid plans, including spiritual practice. So it was that ten retreatants in MWZ's five-day meditation retreat became five. A retreat can only be as successful as the involvement of all concerned and so Ven. Hae Doh Gary Schwocho, Rev. Bup Heng Alex Coe, Rev. Bup Il Greg Sherburn, Rev. Bup Tcheon Stuart Pierson, and Rev. Dae Jaang Jim Casebolt gathered, shared the work load, struggled with pain, tiredness, sleepiness and minds that dare to do their own thing. And at the end we even more strongly affirm that we pay homage to Buddha, to Dharma, to Sangha. 🙏🙏🙏
There will be NO THURSDAY SITTING Dec. 6 and NO ALL-NIGHT ENLIGHTENMENT SITTING Sat. Dec. 8 (Buddhist holy-day) due to the 5-day retreat being held then. Hopefully, you'll pay homage to and for Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha in your homes.
Additionally, there will be NO FRIDAY DEC. 21 MINI-RETREAT. The 3rd Friday of the month retreats will resume in January.
Finally, there will be NO DEC. 31 NEW YEAR'S EVE SERVICE. Rather, we will celebrate the new year at Sunday's Dec. 30 regular morning 10 AM service.
