Zen Day for beginners and beyond with Zen Master Joeng Hye! The Warsaw Zen Center invites everyone who wishes to begin meditation practice to ZEN DAY in a picturesque center located in the forests of Falenica. Encountering this natural and timeless method of working with your body, breath, emotions, and mind can not only improve your well-being but also become the beginning of a long spiritual journey to discover who we truly are and what is most important in our lives. Zen meditation practice is the practice of a “clear mind” – a training in silence, calmness, wisdom, and compassion. These are qualities that, as human beings, regardless of our age, origin, faith, and beliefs, we should continuously develop. Thanks to this, we can live in harmony with ourselves and all living beings around us. We also invite those with experience in personal meditation who are looking for a group to practice systematically with. Additionally, we welcome all members of the Kwan Um School to support us with their presence! 📅 When: Saturday, September 20, 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM Detailed schedule: - 10:00 – 11:30 Introduction by Zen Master Joeng Hye: Zen meditation technique, i.e., how to maintain the correct body posture and mental focus - 11:45 – 12:10 Zen meditation - 12:10 – 12:20 Walking meditation - 12:20 – 12:45 Zen meditation - 1:00 PM Lunch - 2:30 PM Tour of the center (optional) - 2:40 – 3:00 Zen meditation - 3:15 – 4:30 Questions and answers – Zen Master Joeng Hye - 5:00 – 5:20 Chanting Kwan Seum Bosal and two sutras - 5:30 – 6:00 Zen meditation - 6:00 Closing Circle, a time when each participant of ZEN DAY can share their experiences from meditation practice - 6:30 Tea, cookies, conclusion 💰 Participation fee including lunch: 200 PLN.
