  • Wednesday evenings 6:30pm—8:30pm; in person and Zoom.

Weekly Zazen by Zoom Only

  • Weekday mornings 6:00-7:00am
  • Friday mornings, 6:00-7:00 as above; then informal sitting to 7:30am, followed by discussion of practice-related topics until 8:30am

If you are interested in joining us for any of these practice opportunities, please email:    ttssangha@gmail.com

Zazenkai and Sesshin

Zazenkai are usually one- to three-day meditation retreats, held monthly at Dharma Gate. Sesshin are longer retreats—usually seven days—that include sitting and walking meditation, chanting, talks by the teacher, and 1:1 student-teacher meetings to talk about practice. Sesshin are currently non-residential, held at our city center in Seattle, Washington. We will likely hold residential sesshin in the near future.
