Zen Peacemakers As Roshi Bernie Glassman prepares to turn 70, he will use this training week to reflect on his 50 years of Zen practice.

His five decades of Zen study and teaching encompass historic phases in the unfolding of Buddhism in this country, and he has been a guiding influence in this epochal cultural and spiritual developmen...t.

Roshi Bernie will reflect on what he has learned and how he sees the future development of Zen in the West. He will discuss:

* His early experiences of meditation without a teacher, and subsequent relationships with Hakuyu Taizan Maezumi, Roshi, Hakujun Baiun Roshi, Hakuun Yasutani, Roshi and Koryu Osaka, Roshi;
* Formation of and influences on the first generation of American teachers;
* Search for enlightenment and the raising of the Bodhi Mind;
* Challenges of bringing Zen to different realms of society and to all beings;
* Relationship of Zen to other religious traditions;
* Lessons learned from working with and supporting spiritually-based social activists in various countries;
* Developing new forms and structures for sharing the teachings;
* How he sees his future direction and activities as teacher, Zen master, and Founder of the Zen Peacemakers.

Optional Dana (donation) will be requested on behalf of teachers.
