How to Make the Most of Sashin

Zen Buddhism is a full bodied spiritual tradition in which devotions play a vital role. The main practice that we do in Sashin is Zazen, of course. But we have these other aspects of our practice connected here to the Zendo. We have chanting, we have Dharma talks, we have Dyson, private instruction. And I'd like to talk a little bit about each of those, offering some teachings from Roshi and the capital,. as well as some tips that were passed on to me by my teacher, Boden Roshi.
