Public Zazen
The Zen Center of Denver offers a public meditation session with instruction most Tuesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. It is ideal for those who are curious about Zen meditation and would like to give it a try, or for those who would like to get started with meditation practice before attending an introductory seminar. Basic instruction in zazen (Zen meditation) is given on Tuesday evenings, and we ask that you arrive by 6:45 p.m. A brief question and answer period will follow, or there may be a special event. After completing the instruction, you may attend our public meditation as often as you like, but in order to take part in the other training forms at the Center, one needs to have completed the more comprehensive introductory seminar.
For your first visit, or any time you would like to receive instruction, please arrive by 6:45 p.m. on Tuesday evening. Enter through the southwest entrance on 31st Ave. Those attending should wear loose-fitting, comfortable clothing of a subdued color. Please do not wear shorts, short skirts, or strong scents. Cell phones and beepers should be turned off, or set to vibrate mode. Please respect our temple space by refraining from loud conversation, smoking, or bringing in food and drinks. People under the influence of drugs or alcohol will be asked to leave. Childcare is not provided, so please make arrangements for children.
