This summer, Boundless Way is offering a residency program in late July and early August. There are options for attending the first week only (July 28-August 4), the second week only (August 4th-11th), or any combination of the first two weeks plus Summer Sesshin (August 11th-18th). There is also an option to attend only Summer Sesshin.
Daily activities include zazen and kinhin (sitting and walking meditation), teisho (dharma talks) and dharma dialogues, dokusan (private interviews with Zen teachers), samu (work practice), formal meal practice, and guided movement exercises. All three weeks (including the August sesshin) are limited to in-person registration only.
The summer residency will be led by three teacher-facilitators: Dharma Holder Alan Sanhyō Richardson, Dharma Holder Michael Sōkei Herzog, and Senior Assistant Teacher Paul Sōshin Galvin. Guest teachers include Melissa Myōzen Blacker, Rōshi, and David Dae An Rynick, Rōshi.
