We would like to invite you to a meditation retreat (sesshin), which will be held on November 25-27. 2022 in the Buddhist center on Mala Skála.

The weekend retreat (retreat, sesshin) is focused on the intensive practice of Zen meditation in sitting (zazen), walking (kinhin) and simple daily activities in the traditional Japanese Zen school of Soto master Dogen. As part of the retreat, there will be a study of Buddhist philosophy and a discussion of the Dharma. Mutual, open discussion leads to the opportunity to express everyone’s experience and perspective on Buddhist practice. We are an open group, the meditation retreat is open to all who have a sincere interest in studying the Dharma and a willingness to submit to the retreat program.

Accommodation is in non-separated rooms.

Part of the stay for the participants is also a common final cleaning of all living spaces.
