Please join us for this gathering of meditation and healing Sutra recitation for the New Year.

The retreat is structured like our regular monthly virtual gathering described above, except that during the second practice period, volunteers will take turns reading from the Medicine Buddha Sutra.

Everyone participating in the retreat is encouraged to be one of the volunteers who will read aloud. As the Sutra is being read aloud, the text will also be displayed on the screen so everyone else can read along.

Retreat participants are also invited to submit up to three names of people to whom this healing practice will be especially dedicated. Those names will be placed on the altar at in the temple at Furnace Mountain and will also be read aloud.

The Sutra is quite short and can be read in full in under one hour. So in the course of the day’s practice we will be able to read the entire Sutra twice.

As in past one-day online Furnace Mountain retreats, you can come for as much of the day as you are able, but please attend for at least one complete 2-hour session. The event is free, but Furnace Mountain gratefully accepts any donations.

The unsurpassed, profound, subtle and wondrous dharma is difficult to encounter, even in a hundred, thousand, million kalpas.
Now we see and hear it and are able to receive and maintain it.
We vow to understand the Tathagata’s true meaning.

DETAILS & REGISTRATION

The retreat includes sitting and walking meditation, Dharma talk, and 1:1 interviews. Participants are expected to sit the entirety of the day to maintain consistency of the retreat experience.

A mid-morning snack, light vegetarian lunch, and dinner will be served.

Previous experience sitting with the CZC or Furnace Mountain Sangha is recommended, or equivalent experience.

Guest Teacher Dae Do Soen-Sa (Dr. Bob Kohl) is an osteopathic physician, bodyworker, and Zen teacher in the Furnace Mountain Sangha. He began practicing Zen in the early 90s and received Inka (permission to teach) from Zen Master Dae Gak in 2011.

Suggested donation is $90. If this donation presents a hardship, please email us—we have scholarships available.

If you attempt to register and find the retreat is full, you will have the option of joining a waitlist. We will notify you if spaces become available.
