Working on Our Meditation Practice: The Five Hindrances
Saturday, April 28
1:15 - 4:15 pm
With Zoketsu Norman Fischer
City Center Dining room
Beginning and experienced practitioners welcome.
In this afternoon workshop we'll consider the traditional teaching of the five hindrances of sense desire, ill will, laziness, worry, and doubt as they impact our meditation practice - and our lives. The session will include some meditation exercises, journaling, and discussion. Let's see if we can get a grip on these persistently nasty states of mind and heart!
The first part of the retreat will be optional for participants. You are welcome to take part in any of the morning events listed here. Please do plan to arrive no later than 1:00 pm.
9:25am Zazen (optional)

11:00 Question and Answer with Norman (optional)
12:00 Lunch in the dining room (by donation)
