About this retreat
Bodhidharma Sesshin is a traditional intensive Zen retreat: six days of continuous practice in silence, with a full daily schedule of zazen (sitting meditation), chanting services, formal oryoki meals, work practice, and private dokusan (teacher meetings). The 7–10 hour daily sitting load places this firmly in the intensive category.
The center has not yet published the teacher's name, the daily schedule details, or lodging information. Contact Zen Mountain Monastery directly for those specifics before registering.
