NOTE: There will be no ZMBM discussion this Thursday, September 19, due to the ongoing Floating Zendo sesshin. Our discussion will resume Thursday, September 26 at 6pm, when we will likely conclude our study of Shunryu Suzuki's "Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind." 

"In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's there are few."

So begins "Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind," by Shunryu Suzuki, founder of San Francisco Zen Center. Join us as we read and discuss this modern Zen classic. Thursdays at 6 pm. A light dinner will be served, followed by zazen (sitting meditation) at 8 pm. Copies of the book are available at Jikoji. Join us as you can. Beginners welcome!
