Tuesday Evening "Intro to Zen" Series: 8pm in Thompson Chapel Zendo (lower level)

All who are interested in learning about Zen meditation practice are invited to come to this week’s session of “Introduction to Zen Meditation” at 8pm in the College ZENDO (located in the lower level of Thompson Chapel). The 1-hour session will include a mix of meditation and instruction, led by Bernie Rhie (English Department).

This week’s topics will include concentration practices (their value and importance, but also their risks) as well as a continuation of the investigation of what it means to be truly aware of the present moment (thoughts, emotions, bodily sensation, and the environment). What does awareness, truly open non-judgmental awareness, really feel like and what does it DO?

Last week’s session was canceled because of the winter storm warning. If you would like to sign up for the group email list to receive notifications of cancelations, changes in meeting location, and reminders about meeting times, please send an email to Bernie Rhie (brhie@williams.edu) to be added to the list.

All are welcome at this weekly series: students, staff, faculty, and members of the local community.
