Zen

Integral Zen consciously brings together the Integral AQAL maps and the territory of Zen practice.  We use a perspective of the world that is broad enough and insight into ourselves that is deep enough to understand and solve today’s complex problems in brave new ways.  Using Integral tools and Mondo Zen™ we develop enhanced clarity, creativity, vision, and decisive compassionate action. 

 "Mondo Zen training is one of the most important, creative, and novel additions to the meditation pantheon, highly recommended for the accelerated effect it has on spiritual growth and development. Definitely check it out!"

- Ken Wilber, The Integral Vision                

 The Mondo Zen™ process as developed by JunPo Denis Kelly, Roshi  is an extremely powerful transformative process.  It is a modern western adaptation of the ancient Chinese and Japanese Koan training of Rinzai Zen.  Mondo is a Japanese word that means dialogue, and Zen is how the Japanese say the Pali word Dhyana or pure awareness.  Mondo Zen is a dialectical dialogue between Zen teacher and tudent.  It is a direct transmission of pure awareness -- pure meditative mind.  It is a transformational practice which allows us to choose to bring clarity, wisdom, deep caring and compassion directly into our lives and our relationships.

Integral Zen offers weekly practice including sutra services, zazen (sitting meditation), kinhin (walking meditation), Qi Gong (moving meditation), Dokusan (private interview with a Roshi, a lineage holder), dharma talks, workshops, retreats and Mondo Zen™ practice.

This sangha brings into being a harmonious and loving world through the practice of meditative, compassionate awareness and mindful stewardship.

We invite you to join us for the benefit of all beings.
