Please consider joining us at Bo Hyun Sa Temple in Southwest Ranches for this wonderful practice opportunity. The schedule consists of Zen practice (bowing, chanting, sitting, and walking), work and rest periods, and vegetarian meals eaten in traditional temple style. It also includes virtual kong-an teaching interviews with Rebecca Otte JDPSN. Prior meditation experience or attendance at our free newcomer orientation/meditation instruction class (offered three times weekly on Tuesday nights, Wednesday nights, and Saturday mornings) is recommended but not required.
