ZEN-SESSHIN with SHINGAN FRANCIS CHAUVET

„We give up all the things we usually have in our daily life, we cut ourselves off our habitual current. We need to fast from thinking, and the Sesshin offers us that space of silence to help us free ourselves from our habits.“ Hôgen 

A Sesshin is a time of intensive meditation in silence. It consists of seated and walking meditation (zazen and kinhin), in lectures about the Dharma (teisho), in recitation of Sutra-texts and as well in meditative working like preparing food and garden-work (samu).

 

Shingan Francis Chauvet, born 1958 in Reims, is director of the Zen-center Jikô An in Sierra Nevada/Spain. Jikô An is the european center of japanese Zen master Hôgen Yamahata. Shingan will teach in english language.
