ZoomBodhi

Because of the current threat of the spread of COVID 19, we have decided to suspend our Sunday meetings at Bodhi Oak Zen Center. Instead, we will have a Zoom meeting. Our program will be the same as always: two 25-minute periods of sitting meditation split by 10 minutes of walking meditation, a service of bowing and chanting, a dharma talk or reading, and a discussion.

Sunday mornings 10AM to 12 PM PDT

In order to participate, you will need:

a computer, laptop, tablet, or phone with WiFi, set up so that you can see the screen, and so that you can hear the bells and speech. Your voice will be muted until the discussion time.
a reasonably comfortable place to sit, that is quiet and away from noises, in front of your screen. Please position your screen so it does not move. If you need to step away, leave the screen in place.
space to walk in (or you can stand and stretch)
copies of the chants (see below) if you want to participate in the chanting

The instructions for joining the meeting are here:

Please download and import the following iCalendar (.ics) files to your calendar system.
