Koan Salon

with Michael Smith and Karen DeCotis

Saturday,
April 20
9 AM – 1 PM
In Person & via Zoom

Everyone is welcome to join this Koan Salon hosted by the Bozeman Zen Group and led by Michael Smith and Karen DeCotis.

Koan is a Japanese term that refers to a legal public case. In Zen, koans are designed to give us pause, to enter deeply our own case.  We will spend the morning sitting several short periods of zazen, each with a phrase, a story, a poem. There will be walking meditation, and time after each “koan” to consider together. All are welcome, no previous experience with koans is necessary.
