In this year’s course on Zen Study and Practice, Musho Roshi will take us through earlier phases of her practice in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. We will explore three profound and accessible works that illuminate the path of awakening in our modern world. 

Drawing from the fearless insight of Chögyam Trungpa’s The Essential Chögyam Trungpa, the tender wisdom of Pema Chödrön’s When Things Fall Apart, and the transformative teachings of Sogyal Rinpoche’s The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, we will study how Buddhist principles can help us face life’s challenges with openness, compassion, and clarity. 

Together, these texts offer rich, deep, and sound guidance—inviting us to meet impermanence with courage, cultivate mindfulness in the midst of uncertainty, and discover genuine freedom in the heart of our everyday experience.

Why is this Zen Study & Practice Series Important?
The online study and practice series is for established practitioners and those new to practice in a virtual Sangha. The experience of practicing with a teacher and meeting weekly with the Sangha is enlivening and will stabilize and strengthen your practice. If you cannot attend the live session sometimes, the Saturday online call is recorded and made available for download.
