You will receive Monastery Messages once a month and occasionally special announcements. Please set your email account to receive these messages so they are not lost in your spam.
This newsletter mailing list receives the announcements and applications for Tahoma's Osesshin and Kosesshin with Harada Roshi and Daichi Zenni. May, September, and February are the current retreat months. Daichi Zenni will be here intermittently between those months to offer short (approx 5 day) sesshin. Please read Monastery Messages for announcements.
Applications are accepted for a limited time prior to each retreat month, following the announcement for that training period, which will be annouced ahead of time in December, March, and July. Daichi Zenni's sesshins in between month long trainings in May, Sept., and Feb., will be in Monastery Messages. To attend, write tahoma@whidbey.com or call monastery at (360) 331-4142. All sesshin are by fee or donation of approximately $50 a day.
