Center's Description | |
We sit every Sunday from 7 to 9 PM in the meditation room at Holsome Teas and Herbs, located in downtown Princeton.
Beginners' Night is held on the first Sunday of every month. Instruction from 6:30 to 7:00 PM, followed by regular sitting from 7:00 to 9:00 PM The Princeton Area Zen Group (PAZG) engages in lay meditation practice in the tradition of Yasutani-Yamada-Aitken. Founded in 1991 by teachers Manfred Steger and Perle Besserman, the Princeton Area Zen Group is a community-based, non-residential unaffiliated Zen center designed to introduce anyone with a sincere desire for self-realization to the formal practice of zazen (sitting meditation). The group is not a religious organization, but a collection of committed, like-minded individuals responsible for maintaining and supporting a place of Zen practice. It emphasizes traditional elements of Zen practice, like sitting meditation, Dharma talks, private interviews, and retreats, but within a framework of Western culture with an emphasis on democratically discussed and implemented community policies. |
