Shuso Hossen Sesshin

A weeklong sesshin marking the completion of the monastery's practice period, led by Geoffrey Shugen Arnold with Jody Hojin Kimmel, Ron Hogen Green, and Danica Shoan Ankele.

We're seeing things as they are, and it's a much different world to be invited into, and to be called to attend to, and so I think there we see the enormous importance of practice, not as a way to retreat or turn away from, but rather to go right into the belly of things.
