This summer ZDS's People Circle is inviting everyone who's interested to be part of a weekly study group where we will together read and discuss a zen-related text. The book for this summer is Appreciate Your Life: The Essence of Zen Practice by Taizan Maezumi Roshi, a good one both for beginners and seasoned practitioners. (You can preview the book by clicking here.) 

The group will meet each week on Thursday evenings at the zendo from 7-8 pm, beginning on June 15. At each session we'll read a section of the book together and then discuss -- no need to prepare ahead. (Obtaining your own copy of the book, however, is recommended.)

To facilitate discussion, participation in-person at the zendo is preferred. But those who wish are also welcome to join via Zoom at https://zoom.us/j/96658134788?pwd=Yyt6Q0xaY2dXZ2YzUzNJWGpaejV1dz09
(Meeting ID: 966 5813 4788 Passcode: 283837)

The zendo will open at 6:45 for those who want to schmooze with tea and a treat before the group begins. If you are an active Zen practitioner and interested in being part, please come & join in our summer conversation!
