We’ll observe the annual memorial for Dr. King on Monday, 20 January, so there won’t be the regular periods of zazen (seated meditation). Please join us again Tuesday, 21 January, beginning at 6:30 a.m., as usual.
Hartford Street Zen Center | Issan-ji temple
A Sōtō Zen temple for the LGBTQ+ community, friends and allies in San Francisco's Castro neighborhood
Warm up to the New Year by chillin’ with us! Here’s the schedule:
7:30 pm Dai-Soji (temple cleaning)
8:00 pm New Year’s Noodles!
8:30 pm Zazen (sitting meditation)
9:00 pm New Year’s Toast & Fire Ceremony
Afterwards, you can go out and paint the town, if so inclined, but you’ll go with a peaceful heart. What could be better? Everyone is welcome!
