Foundations of Practice Class: Zen Ritual and Liturgy
Zen Ritual and Liturgy: What is at the heart of bowing and chanting?
with Ben Connelly and Deb Mielke
Ritual is a basic component of our traditional style practice at MZMC and has been central to Buddhist and Zen practice for thousands of years. This class is an investigation of both how and why we do ritual: bowing, chanting, tending altars, and others. We'll also study the meaning and purpose for some of the chants we use at our Center.
Offered online and in person.
Wednesdays, August 28 – September 25, 7:15 – 8:45 pm

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.
