Half-Day Sesshins are offered in person only.


This brief immersion in the traditional sesshin schedule is a good opportunity to become familiar with the forms, stay in practice, or brush up after some time away. This morning includes an orientation, zazen, kinhin (walking meditation), liturgy, a formal vegetarian breakfast using oryoki bowls, and one-to-one meetings with the teacher. If you are new to sesshin practice at MZMC, attendance at the Zen Forms and Etiquette class is required.


Saturday, 5:45 a.m. – noon

Vegetarian breakfast included.

Please register five days in advance.


2025 Dates:

  • January 18 with Keido Thotland
  • June 14 with Jiryu Matt Cisler
  • October 11 with Ted O'Toole


Suggested donation: $45


A Note About Donation-only Programming

Following the Buddhist tradition of dana, or giving, MZMC offers all of our programs on a donation basis. We offer a suggested donation amount to help people understand the average amount we hope to receive to continue to make these offerings. We encourage those with more capacity for giving to make a donation above the suggested amount to support those who need to give a smaller amount.
