Upcoming Presentation w/ Abbott Jiryu Rutschman-Byler August 15th

“Our way of sitting is for you to become yourself.”

From the beloved author of Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind comes a new book of teachings on the essence of Zen practice.

A new collection of talks by Shunryu Suzuki Roshi, compiled by Sojun Mel Weitsman and Jiryu Rutschman-Byler, is a warmhearted teaching on a practice that is fundamentally about becoming yourself.  In his inimitable style, filled with humor and insight, Becoming Yourself speaks directly to the newest beginners while also serving as a touchstone and a continual source of inspiration for even the most experienced practitioners and Zen teachers.

Please join us for a reception with Abbott Jiryu to celebrate the book’s release.  Copies of the book will be available for purchase.  

A reception with light food and drink will follow.
