Saturday October 12, 2013 we will have an altered schedule for this one day from our normal weekly routine. We will have one single 9:25am zazen period followed by and in-depth Issan-Ji Temple Samu day.
We invite our Sangha to come and sit this period and if available and willing, help us deeply cleanse our temple and our twisted Karma all at once.
We will be taking a small “open to the public” break this Thursday through Saturday. Picking up our regular public schedule again Monday at 6pm, the 8th of July.
We hope you had a great Pride Celebration weekend, and please have safe and enjoyable celebration of our Country’s Interdependence, whoops we meant Independence!
