Realizing Non-Duality

Valley Streams Zen Sangha is dedicated to the study of Buddha’s teaching and the practice of meditation. We invite newcomers and experienced Zen students to join us. If you are new to Buddhism and Zen, we invite you to visit our “What is Buddhism?”, “What is Zen?” and “How to Participate” pages. You are also invited to attend a 40-minute Introduction to Zen Meditation which meets in person on the second Monday of each month.

Valley Streams Zen Sangha

Join us for a half-day of sitting and walking meditation led by So'on Jim Hare, Valley Streams' Head of Practice

Valley Streams Zen @ Sacramento Dharma Center

<p>“The Way is not difficult, just avoid picking and choosing.” So said one of our ancient Chinese Zen teachers. The irony of this statement has not been lost over the centuries: as human beings we seem to be built for picking and choosing. Does that mean we will always be remote from the Buddha Way? That can’t be so! But how do we leap beyond our preferences, the strong habit falling into one side or the other? This question will be the theme of our retreat.</p><p>This half-day retreat will feature periods of sitting and walking meditation and a Dharma talk by So'on Jim Hare. A social lunch will follow the retreat; please bring your own. No one will be turned away for lack of funds. If this will be your first extended sitting with us, please send us a note at <a href="mailto:info@valleystreamszen.org" title="mailto:info@valleystreamszen.org" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">info@valleystreamszen.org</a> to introduce yourself.</p>
