Zen Study
(Winter 2026)

 

Precepts As A Living Practice

Wednesdays 5:30-6:45pm PT, January - March, 2026

Led by Lucy Laoshi

 

Description:

 

This study period invites us to explore the Bodhisattva Precepts as a living practice, guided by Master Dōgen’s Kyojukaimon (Teachings on the Precepts). Each weekly gathering will include 30 minutes of zazen (meditation) followed by 45 minutes of study and discussion. We will move slowly through the text and explore how the precepts show up in ordinary life - not as moral rules to follow, but as expressions of awakening. 

The sessions are hybrid. While participation is on a drop-in basis, we encourage you to attend as consistently as possible to fully benefit from the practice and discussions.

Schedule:

Wednesdays (PT)

5:30pm  meditation (25-30 min)

6:00pm  study and discussions (45 min)

is it not a pleasure?

When friends come join us from distant places,

is it not joy?"

有朋自遠方來,不亦樂乎?
