Joint Sangha Sesshin: WEZC and Bright Way Zen


Sesshin is a silent, residential meditation retreat. Attending sesshin is an extremely valuable way to deepen your zazen and build connections with Sangha; there’s a million excuses not to attend sesshin, but it’s always profoundly rewarding – commit to attending now and then plan your life around this retreat.

This will be our third annual “WEBZ” sesshin, a collaborative effort between Wy’East Zen center (WE) and Bright Way Zen (BZ). It will be held at beautiful Camp Yamhill. You can arrive Tues, Wed, Thurs, or Fri and then stay until the end.

Teachers: Domyo Burk (Bright Way Zen), Jyoshin Clay (Wy’East Zen Center), and Shintai Dungay (both Bright Way and Wy’East)

Location: Camp Yamhill in Yamhill, Oregon (1-hour, 15-minutes drive from the Westside, about 1-hour, 45 minutes from Sandy)

Full retreat – $375 ($275 for Bright Way or Wy’East Zen Center members)
