“The Dharma, incomparably profound and infinitely subtle,
is rarely encountered even in hundreds of thousands of millions of ages.
Now we can see it, hear it, receive and maintain it.
May we completely realize the Tathāgata’s true meaning.”

Tomorrow is another ONLINE practice day together with our Mahasangha, organized by Furnace Mountain Zen Center.

Please consider joining. It’s free and all are welcome.
