Please Join All Beings Zen Sangha for a Zazenkai (one day zen retreat) at Woodburn Hill Farm in Mechanicsville MD, (approx 50 miles south of Washington DC; directions will be forthcoming for those attending).
Leading the retreat will be our resident priest Rev. Inryu Bobbi Ponce-Barger, Sensei.
Special guest teacher Jisan Tova Green will offer a late morning Dharma Talk on: The Challenges of Practicing with Integrity in Challenging Times. In the talk Jisan Sensei will explore the meanings of integrity, how integrity relates to practicing with the precepts, and is relevant to us as individuals, within our relationships, within our communities and in the global world.
Jisan Tova Green, a Zen priest who received dharma transmission from Eijun Linda Cutts in 2015, resides and teaches at San Francisco Zen Center’s City Center. She co-founded the SFZC Queer Dharma Group in 2009 and the group “Unpacking Whiteness – Reflection and Action.” Tova has worked as a hospice social worker, plays the cello, and writes poetry.
