ZEN: seeing our true nature; becoming Buddha
KEN (sword): develop vital energy through battoho training
SHO (brush): cultivate sensitivity and artistic expression through calligraphy

Residential training will include zazen (meditation), choka (chanting), samu (working), and interaction with Meido Roshi. We will integrate as a group and prepare for sesshin.
Sesshin:
Meido Roshi will lead the intensive zen retreat. The rigorous monastic schedule will push us to confront and transcend challenges during zazen (sitting meditation), kinhin (walking meditation), choka (chanting), sanzen (meeting with the Roshi), samu (work practice), ceremonial meals, and more.
