Zazen and Weapons Sesshin

Please join us in a weekend retreat of Sesshin (Zazen) and weapons training. All interested people are welcome regardless of experience, and we look forward to sharing this valuable practice with you.

The Sesshin will be led by Genjo Marinello Osho of Dai Zan Cho Bo Ji in Seattle, Washington. Genjo-Osho received the Dharma from his teacher Genki Roshi, a longtime affiliate and zen teacher to Birankai International. Like previous years, weapons training is included in the schedule combining the Rinzai Zen discipline with Aikido training.
